I'm trying to get out of the red with my new straight shaving obsession (skin and wallet). It seems I've spent quite a bit already.

I have asked a friend of mine who is into antiques to keep an eye out for shaving related items for me. I will keep some items and resell the rest. I would prefer to sell the items that I don't keep for the best price I can. eBay, and an auction format is great for doing just that. Additionally, I'd like SRP members to have a shot at, or at least be made aware of the items I list.

So, my question is this. How would you handle this? Should I list them on eBay but then put a post with a link to the auction in the buy/sell/trade forums, or classifieds? Is that considered bad taste? Is there a preferred or more palatable method? Note, if I just post them in the forum first for a given price, I won't have an idea whether I've priced the item right or not.

Thanks,
John
