Well this is not like a new pick but and old pick new.  Back in year 2003 I was working for he military up in Michigan and one day we were driving along and someone was giving away a riding lawn mower for free.  Well we picked it up and took it home and it looked old, but the motor looked great and ran great.  After finding out the transmission had a big hole in it i decided to keep the motor and trash the rest.  No heart in throwing away a good motor, we mover from Michigan to Virginia in 2004 and kept it.  The thing sat in the shed since then until yesterday.  4 years ago we went to Lowes and bought a $1600.00 Husqvarna riding mower and discovered that the stupid Koler motors developed a cracked block and would lose all the oil. My idea was to place this 1995 Briggs and Stratton motor on this 2009 Husqvarna.  The thing bolted right into position and after a shot of starting fluid she fired right up.  The muffler even bolted up in the right position.   I then got to tell the wife, see honey pack ratting does pay off..... saved me 600 bucks for a new motor.... yea...

My wife came up withthe idea why the prices for units are so high right now.   Income Tax checks,  while some people get them others got to pay...

I,m sorry I had bibles on my mind, was a little smoky when I commented ....

I must say I have no Idea, with that over with.   I do like the one "so a seal can cash a check."

It might just be me in a bad mood and/or after driving 50 miles to go to two auctions.  I don't mind the driving, because that is just because where we live. But, but when you get there there is over 100 people that showed up.  Well after the bidding started a trash unit went for $240.  I had just enought time to make it to the other place and sign.  They wanted my name and phone number, well that's normal.  Then they a copy of my drivers  license, i didn't like that to much, but ok.  Next, they wanted $50 deposit just to bid.  Somewhere in my little mind, I said the heck with it and just went home.  If i have to give a $50 deposit just to bid, forget it. 

What about taxes?  Federal and state?  I already pay enought taxes from my real job and don't want to get taxed anymore.  Is the income form the sales in one of the vender stores taxed as income???

I been selling on Ebay for some time now, but not really making a killing.  More like just a poke here and there.  my question is....  drum roll please......  How do you deside on a good starting price?
