I recently sold several book lots on ebay, and I was pleasantly surprised by
the ending prices. I should mention though that over time, I had collected
vast quantities of books on Apple II related topics, so I was able to group
them into subjects like programming, graphics, etc.and that might have
effected the prices in a favorable way.

 I've always been pleased with the ending bids on my auctions, at least when
I'm selling Apple II items.
