Hi Doren

Off line for about a week.

Finally I did get back the good system for downloading pictures.

However, so what?! If my items sell, I consider it luck.

Rather than doing all of that hard work, I have decided that I will list 1 picture and indicate anyone wanting more info to send me a note via ebay and I will provide more.

Ebay has their rating system for sellers----------well guess what just because Joe Smoe has sold 2000 items doesn't mean that his item is any more valuable than a comparable one from another poster.

However, Joe Smoe gets the most traffic-----and bids because of his or her Ebay Medal / medallion.

Is this a little like controlling the market place?

It's almost like a lottery ticket on Ebay now-------take a look at the number of books or the pieces of art posted.
What chance does one have of selling a item if it gets lost in the myriad number of listings.

One thing I have done which has helped is selling internationally in English speaking countries as that is what I speak. Just a hint.
