paypal’s fees will be 2.9% + $0.30 per transaction within the US. international will be 3.9% transaction fee plus a fixed fee based on currency received.
if it sells for what you probably paid (assuming you bought it off richard) you’ll be out a few dollars. i haven’t been a seller for a few years, and i know they tried a fix calculator shipping system for a while (based on weight). if you add in a “handling fee” (say for materials and make that clear in the auction description) you can make a few dollars back on shipping.
as far as the legality, it is 100% legal to sell a flashboy on eBay. the flashboy does not contain anything that circumvents any anti-piracy measures. it doesn’t have part of a rom as a bootstrap nor is it considered a “mod-chip”. to be fair, the people pulling auctions will have no idea what they are looking at. so you would be wise to not say certain keywords in your title or description (play ROMs, piracy, etc). i’ve seen a few FB’s sell on eBay and those sellers never had a problem.
you may also consider gamegravel.com. they have a specific VB category: http://www.gamegavel.com/listview.cgi?cat_id=34800 i am not familiar with their policy, so read any FAQ they have before listing.
Fair enough. Thanks for the insight. If I don’t get a buyer from the forums int he next few days, perhaps I’ll eBay it then. In the meantime, I’m accepting offers.
Sure, I’ll be happy to ship to Canada! This cart came from the UK, so it will have more international travel then I have had.
Send me a private message and lets talk.
