Those were built in the mid 80’s. Not as desirable as the older Sansui models.
I would try an unload them on FB marketplace or CL as you say, they would be quite expensive to ship, probably more than their actual value.Ive had no issues with missing photos on recently renewed listings.
Facebook might be an avenue to sell them, either on marketplace or perhaps there is a group for RR keys.
You might try the Lionel rabbbit hole.
It’s easy to see what your GSP buyer sees for shipping rates, just click on the shipping tab on your item and choose the country, it’ll come back with the total charges including import tax.
The Bonanza synch doesn’t always work. Easy to deal with when something on Bonanza sells, just delete it from eBay but the other way round would be quite tedious. It happens about half the time, something sells on Bonanza that already sold on eBay, I just cancel the order and click on the ‘refund fee’ button.
I haven’t sold an item on Trugether since last year, not sure what’s up with that site.
I just waited until my store was firmly over 500 items as I knew I would continue to grow.
And now you get another $25 to spend on shipping supplies with the upgrade.Monthly numbers for July 2018
Items listed in store 885
Sold 56 eBay 55 Bonanza 1
Gross sales eBay $4312 Bonanza $50
Returns 0
Highest sale $800 Sun Valley Poster
Average $78Even though I usually never sweat about an expensive item I’ve shipped, the poster caused me some concern, I didn’t double box it, just a round mailing tube. I did receive a positive FB so all went ok.
I’ve hit the 900 item mark which is saying something for a guy who is a very slow lister, just enough to keep the lights on. I guess it also proves how slow this summers sales are.08/03/2018 at 5:10 pm in reply to: Foam for shipping large items? What's it called? Any recommendations? #46793I but styrofoam sheets or extruded polystyrene at my local hardware store, they come 8’x4’ so I cut them in half at the store so they fit easily in my mini van and take up less space when storing.
I believe Home Depot sells them in smaller sizes.I’ve replaced your number 7 with a small air compressor I got at a yard sale for $10. Amazing how well it can clean stuff out of small places.
08/03/2018 at 8:38 am in reply to: What Sells On eBay: Train case, Gun case, Sony 8mm VCR, San Fran prints, Magazine rack, Speakers, Hats #46769I’ll only ship small (12”-15”) Speakers in a single box.
With this pair I doubled the weight and dimensions for calculated shipping on the listing, they went via GSP. After printing one label I go back to the shippping labels page and purchase and print another label, I also mark the labels and boxes 1 of 2, 2 of 2.
The pair I sold a couple weeks ago I used calculated for one speaker and added a $100 handling fee, those also went GSP with no problems.

Denatured alcohol removes ink, magic marker (even removes it off marked shiny label cardboard boxes), sticky leftover residue and you can clean tape deck heads with it.
Multi meter, great for testing anything electronic especially power supplies.
Lemon oil, works wonders on scratched wood surfaces.
Dental picks and scrapers.
A tape measure in every room and or table, I’m always measuring stuff.

I have Prince ‘Love God’ and Wendy guitar picks from the Purple Rain tour.08/01/2018 at 8:44 am in reply to: Scavenger Life Episode 371: T-Satt (Troy) Reports on eBay Open #46598I’d like to know a little more about the train buildings as I have a number of them unlisted.
Were the buildings you sold new or unassembled?
Thanks. -
