But you still have to sit on your merchandise for 6 months while it depreciates and before you can try to sell it anywhere else. That'll throw off tons of sellers right there. With Ebay, you're committed for only 1-10 days.

Honestly, what do you think the chances are of that 2004 Dodge Viper SRT-10 getting 139,999 tickets bought with only a traffic rating of 304,770? And if it doesn't sell, the 2005's are already on the market with the 2006's coming soon. Your $85000 Viper can now only be sold for maybe $65,000-70,000. Not to mention the fact that you're paying insurance for that car for that 6 months.
