Ebay and my poor limited brain...

Kathy and I are trying to sell off some anime merchandise which we no longer need and which may fetch a fair price (some of the Dragon Ball Daizenshu collection, some Sailor Moon artbooks, etc). She's had an Ebay account for some time but while she's bought stuff she never actually sold anything this way, so we started off on that adventure.

However, I can't figure out how to set the thing up the way I want to. The instructions seem to give you the options of auction OR fixed price, yet I see plenty of listings that say "minimum bid"... and "Buy It Now" options.

Do I just go to the fixed price and somewhere in there it will also give me a "bidding start" option?

And I hadn't realized they had so many little FEES in there.

You might have better luck listing them where your fans or fans of the items are. Set a price and list stuff here and/or on baensbar if allowed.

Amazon sucks for books. There will be 20 people with one for 99 cents. If it is a rare or signed book consider other venues.
