    ok thanks for your opinions but what does "piece it out" mean?

    Selling each card individually

    ok, that certainly helps, what do you guys think of selling rainbows and certain groups as a whole?

    I think Ebay has rules against selling untangible things like rainbows and the sale of humans or group of humans is strictly forbidden and may have the RCMP knocking at your door.

    Try Kijiji instead... Good luck!!

    Unfortunately ebay.

    Yep...but the fees will eat it up. So basically, piece them out, but that 1 card you think you will get a nice chunk for, consider it your 'fees sale', cause the money you get for that one will end up going to ebay.
    That is how I handle it. That way I am not in a pinch at beginning of the month when fees are due.

    Yes...I do this often...but only if you think you won't be able to sell the lower end ones.

    Ebay will offer you a larger market and the potential for a bidding war, but at the cost of listing/selling fees and a significantly larger potential for disreputable buyers, especially with eBay's "The buyer is absolutely always right" policy.

    SCF will offer you a much lower risk pool and no fees, but you are not so likely to find "that guy" who will pay out top dollar.

    Either way, you'll get more for the collection if you piece it out, or at least break it down into segments.

    It hard to get visibility selling here and I hope the storefront we are working on will become a middle men between ebay and SCF forum and change all this. But now ebay is the better choice for now. We hope one day we can say SCF Storefront is the better choice

    if you know who the other big Shea Weber guys are, contact them directly. if not, ebay will get you a larger audience.

    I would try to sell on both, list them here and on Ebay, and sell them here if you get the opportunity and just end the item on Ebay.

    If you don't need the money ASAP you could try selling here first with your asking prices and then after a while put the ones that haven't sold up on ebay.

    I bought a jar of sunshine on Craigslist, but never received it.
