I know you don't want to sell these on ebay but you can sell them for much higher prices there than by yourself. It doesn't matter if ebay takes a cut if you sell it for more than you would have sold it here. Usually ebay's cut is around 10% so I don't really see it as that big a deal especially if you're selling high priced items. This statue in particular sold for around 500.00+ used on ebay and since there are none there at present you can pick your price at this point. Ebay also has an international shipping program that will cover shipping costs overseas so you'll be able to sell your items to more people worldwide for the cost of regular shipping. If you're worried about trolls you could always make it so that a buyer with a low feedback rating can't buy your items which would take away the threat of anyone just creating a new account to troll you. the only drawback I can think of is the listing fee which is .30 for every buy it now listing but if you list a limited amount of items that's not that big a deal either.
nkuser what you don't realize: it would never work on Ebay. I'd get TONS of fake bids who would withdraw, ruining the auction; I'd also get TONS of trollish comments, reviews etc. and I also have zero rep (so I don't show up as a reputable seller) which means I'd get next to no bids anyway.
THEKINGOFHATEVLOGS I can give you easy fixes for all your reasons not to do ebay. 1. Don't do auction style listings do buy it now listings where bidding can't happen this way you decide the price and who the item goes to 2. people can't leave comments unless they brought something from you. You can also defend yourself in the comments as well as write them a negative review back. As I explained in my previous post you can also control who buys your items to make it so that only people with really good rep are able to buy your items. You can also block buyers as well from buying your stuff. If someone manages to buy the item and doesn't pay you can easily cancel the transaction and re-list it again. 3. Having zero rep doesn't matter at all everyone has to start at the bottom my best advice for you is to give good pictures and describe the items in detail you'll get buyers regardless and finally the biggest way to fix all those problems: I agree with angelfire1987 completely don't use your real name the statues will still sell regardless mainly due to rarity. If you sold a statue for 550.00 and ebay took 10% you would still be left with 495.00. There are probably some statues you own that you could sell for around 600-700. If the profits from making a video and selling the statue are more than that than disregard everything I'm saying but if not I don't know why you wouldn't try this. even so you could always just sell all statues that didn't sell on ebay under a new username not associated with Darksydephil. It's only .30 cents to list it for buy it now so you can try it out without any great lost. If you want to sell it faster you can list it with a best offer option but raise the price from what you want to sell it for if you're going to do that.
angelfire1987 I think this is a good idea. In fact, making a secondary email with a completely different name and info would be great for low profile side account. No one can find you unless you let them.
