Go there, examine how other people are doing their sales/auctions. Ask
them
questions directly. That'd prolly be your best, easiest, and fastest way
of
getting some ideas on how to do this (since there are different ways of
doing
it ;).
There's a seperate newsgroup if you're dealing with collectible trading
cards (which one of these days I'm gonna find some time and plow through
that so I can sell my excess off :-/ ).

If the conquest of a great peak brings moments of exultation and bliss,
which in the monotonous, materialistic existence of modern times nothing
else can approach, it also presents great dangers. It is not the goal
of
*grand alpinisme* to face peril, but it is one of the tests one must
undergo to deserve the joy of rising for an instant above the state of
crawling grubs.
