I've sold a few things on ebay now and then for a while now, and it's been perfectly easy and normal. Everything up to now has been items of children's clothing, either very inexpensive, or a little more expensive but something that I know exactly the market value of (often because I bought it on ebay in the first place).
This time I had two items that I started at $24.99 and expected might go as high as $50. One, a pair of Coach gloves, went for $100, and the other, a pair of sunglasses, went for $161! I just shipped them and I am fraught with anxiety about the whole thing. So much money! The gloves were a gift (like, 20 years ago, and I wore them perhaps twice; they are old-fashioned leather driving gloves), but I think $100 is a decent or under-estimation of the cost new, and probably okay for their current value. I know what the sunglasses cost new, though (hint: not $161), and while I feel I described them to the best of my knowledge, I still feel a little like I am defrauding the person who bought them.
I am going to be on tenterhooks until I get some feedback on these. And maybe even after that. How silly of me! It's because it is so much money, of course. Silly money.
