Well, my comment is purely based on "non vintage" specific things. I've a fetish ( ok ok, I know ) for xeons. On current hw there are various things with actually balanced / good prices to be found. But xeons tend to be valued more than they should

People pay what they are willing to pay. It is not like Amazon where bots watch other bots and raise the prices of rare books in a spiral anti-bidding-war. Sure, they are places where, as a buyer, you may find bargains -- but as a seller, what is the appeal of selling somewhere that will make you less money? eBay is easy, it works worldwide (or as nearly as anyone does), the seller fees are low, and it has a large catchment audience. I have sold a lot of stuff there, and bought some too. It does the job. I often see people on here saying go to some obscure website or other instead, but most of those are US-based. I am not in the USA and don't want to be. -- Liam Proven – Profile: https://about.me/liamproven Email: lpro...@cix.co.uk – gMail/gTalk/gHangouts: lpro...@gmail.com Twitter/Facebook/LinkedIn/Flickr: lproven – Skype: liamproven UK: +44 7939-087884 – ČR (+ WhatsApp/Telegram/Signal): +420 702 829 053
