            Agreed, I sell lots of broken computer equipment and there seem to be lots of people who actually want to use the parts.
 In my case I actually wanted to get something fairly beat up, so I could practise doing minor repairs on it before I let myself loose on my nice clarinet. So there is a demand for broken things sometimes!0

 There are so many reasons why people don't post abroad through eBay and that I suspect is far from being one of them.
 disagree - I'd say it's spot-on; but it works in my favour as I get quite a lot of export sales because I can be bothered. And they are more prone to pay quickly and leave top feedback too.The questions that get the best answers are the questions that give most detail....0

 That one just about cover my entire selling history!0

            This is a pressie I bought for my friends Son. He wanted a punch bag with a pull up bar.
 The title of the product is as written above. Guess what it didn't come with a chin pull up bar!! the seller said they use those words for key words??
 Like buying a pepperoni pizza with no pepperoni

 I've added that at the end of my listing, after I have described it complete with relevant photos on the off chance that someone may spot something that I've missed.
 Never had an question yet. 0 0
