My dad, a very sccessful business man with the biggest pallet manufacturing company in the Western Cape (http://www.palletsupply.co.za) says that actually, auctioning a product is not always the best idea! I don't know what his view on aircraft is though! vhpy

Played plenty, but very few big tag items sell easily (or first time).

Good luck....

I have bought many articles there with almost 100% satisfaction, there are some great deals to be had as long as you know your pricing and you do not get caught up in a bidding frenzy.

The selling is also good, as long as your prices are reasonable you should move your articles.

Regards,
Rudi

Bought and sold quite a bit on BOB. A lot of people tend to overdo the reserve price and hence the larger items don't move. If you are selling be reasonable and it should move.

It's actually quite good fun to see if you win the final bid.
