Do NOT go the E-BAY route. You will surely regret it. For one reason or another.

Well, I almost always end up selling stuff the easiest, most fool proof way, which I'm sure is part of the reason I never get top dollar. That said, KEH is offering me a pretty fair amount, so I think I will end up doing it that way.

You should be able to easily beat the KEH price by several hundred dollars if you put an ad on Craigslist, if you leave in a reasonably populated area.

Craigslist these days requires a high tolerance for BS and a keen ability to sift through all the scams and bots to get to the occasional sincere inquiry. And the knowledge that they’re going to bring just the cash they want to spend and try to talk you down when they get there.

So then you have to be willing to walk away and try again. After a couple trips to a “neutral site” so scammers don’t know where you live, that gets old.

Exactly ! I mean, I applaud those with the patience for all that. But I'm too old, and don't have time for all that lol

Every day in the field is a blessing. Nice photos, of beautiful birds and wildlife are just a bonus.
