I know exactly what you mean Baron. I recently sold my A&L at auction and the winner got it for less than half of what I had in the parts alone. Not counting all the time I put in to building it.

By the way, I'll be shipping it out to you tomorrow

I did sell the rims separately so that yielded a few more dollars. I love auctions where you know the item is selling regardless of the price and it is exciting to see the bidding with no idea what you might get. I would love to have got more from the A&L but I listed it knowing what could happen. And I can live with that. The money will help where I need it the most so it's all good

There are some auctions where I will put a higher starting bid but for the most part, I try to stay low and offer free shipping. It just makes the whole auction experience for me and that is what it is all about. I am not into money. I have it because I have to.
