Here’s some information that might help from the eBay website |

I am constantly surprised at how high the prices are being paid for the older, out of production Classic Metal Works.
If one wanted to buy for present use for future sale as an investment, you would do very well.
Do not buch up the items for sale, sell the items individually, it will bring higher prices per item.
You could also post on Craigs List for no charge.
The main reason of using E-Bay is that you just may luck out and find two prospective purchasers who just want the item, forget the cost.
Remember, the number of people checking e-bay is a lot more that you will find with the alternatives that have been proposed.
I check e-bay periodically just to do a search on items that have sold. Often you will find items selling for way more than what you could pay for a new item today.
You will do very well with the Classic Metal Works vehicles that are no longer in production.

All are good suggestions. I think train shows are the best, you could do the internet but sometimes that can be a hassle, especially if the buyer is not satisfied and wants the money back.
One thing or person I would stay from is the guy that advertises in MR, saying he has $400,000.00 to buy trains. His offers are too low but he will take them off your hands but you won’t recieve even a fair price. I did it and it was a mistake.
