The higher the value, the worse it gets.

But hey, you get to save 25 cents in listing fees, so it's not all bad news.
I spoke with a large ebay vintage seller yesterday. He doesn't know what he is going to do but is looking at maybe doing a small auction...as so many others are now doing. I don't sell on ebay but if I did I would have to re-evaluate if it was worth my time.
