    Been a while since anybody has posted here, so here's my two cents worth.
    I've been restoring for about two years now. I'm currently working on my 15th. I buy most of my projects from Craig's List and have set a limit of $50 for any machine.
    I started to sell my machines on eBay last year. My wife and I are big users of eBay. Started out selling 3 machines to a collector from Houston. We were very careful in our packaging and they all arrived safely.
    With that success, I sourced more units and have sold 10 more on eBay.
    I write a very specific add that details all the work I do and take very clear pictures. I have also started making a video of each machine showing what I've done to restore it. These I post to YouTube and the provide a link in my ad. I also offer the service of personal contact by phone or email.
    Ive been told by a number of buyers that it is the video and extra service that made them buy my machine over others. My machines now sell for $500.
    I agree most eBay ads are terrible, as the owners usually know nothing about the machine. However, there are a few people using eBay that are honest and know what they are doing.
    Suffice to say if you want a beautifully restored machine, contact me!��
