Hello,

I'm selling my first item on ebay, a 5986 I got a Target a few summers • back.
Oddly though, no one is interested in it, but the same thing from another
ebay seller is up to $56,

http://search.ebay.com/search/search.dll?MfcISAPICommand=GetResult&ht=1&Sort
Property=MetaEndSort&ebaytag1code=0&query=5986

Does anyone have any ideas why, is it because my picture is poor, or my • ebay
ranking is low?

Well, it doesn't help that you won't ship abroad.

<rant not directed at George in particular>

I never understand what the big deal is over writing a different address on
the parcel and applying a customs sticker. Sure, the risk is slightly
higher, but in the 7 years I have been sending LEGO back and forth over the
Atlantic, nothing has ever got lost.

When I have asked sellers in the past they usually come up with some lame
excuse such as needing to walk to the PO rather than using their company's
mail room...
