    Wow! Great job MadHen. I have some stuff to sale, but I'm a little intimidated by the whole process. I have never bought or sold anything on Ebay.

    That's great! They are having a 50% off listing fee for 1 and 3 day listings til the end of January. I think I'll list a few things and see how it goes. Thanks for the inspiration, Madhen!

    Thanks all! This was a batch of old DVD's that I'd accumulated over the years. Some of them don't even play on European players, but I guess they are valuable to someone! I have listed DVD's before, and they usually get a pretty high price, so I was expecting over $50. But I was pleasantly surprised when it went higher!
