![]() * - most people fail uttery to list their goods properly - poor description, crappy/insufficient photos, wrong/insufficient section(s), poor spelling, refusal to deliver, whatever and then blame eBay for the poor results!!! ![]() It's worth a penny less than fcuk all to a quadraplegic but possibly worth half a million to a fanatical collector who needs exactly that model production number to complete his set of 300,000 of them.

Decide on what YOU (or your friend) wants to get for the lathe and either advertise it for exactly that price and nothing else OR auction it and get what someone is actually willing to pay. On the one hand you're slagging off people who go on eBay hoping for a bargain and then complain that someone paid MORE THAN YOU for something Make your mind up! Enthusiasts scour sites like eBay for lathes like that - if you advertise it PROPERLY* on ebay you'll receive excatly what it's worth - no more, no less. I've lost count of the number of times I've been 'sniped' in the last couple of seconds by people who don't want to bid fairly. I'm hoping to find an enthusiasts site to list it in an advert to sell for her. Personally I've become dissalusioned with Ebay as most people go on there to get a bargain. She does not want to see it broken up into bits to sell it. My friend's dad bought the lathe new in the 40's and lovingly looked after it until he passed away last December. Often see on TV, expert says its worth this much and it sells for less, sometimes its more, but I would still say the best option is auction. If it does not sell perhaps you could shave some off the price. ![]() ![]() I would suggest as said, put it on ebay with a reserve. ![]() My point is that 'an expert' can say it is worth £XXX but unless the buyer is willing to pay that much it's not going to happen. Its worth what it will fetch on e-bay or a lot more if you sell it in bits Suppose some one on here said you should get £XXX for that easy, ask them do they want to buy it for that, the answer will probably be no. ![]()
