Thinking about selling - options?

What are the best ways to go about selling an item like this?<br /><br />From what I can gather, major auction houses charge 15% - ebay about 5% or so - and there is no real market on cards of this nature as far as I can tell to simply ask for a dollar amount. I say there is no market as I have yet to see another Cobb overprint from this set. But perhaps those that have been in the hobby more than I, which would simply be about 6 months, would have a better idea.<br /><br />I am sure there are many pluses and minuses...thanks in advance for any ideas or other thoughts?<br /><br />ps...the picture posted here was pre-grading, it has subsequently been graded SGC 30...would probably grade one or two grades higher but for a little pencil initials on the top back corner. If you want to see the scan of both front and back I can send you one, email me at rgutheil@bayougroup.com
