2 cents on the dollar is cheap considering the number of potential buyers your ad will reach

If you do sell it there, just be sure to examine the piece very carefully and grade it in strict accordance to the Audiogon grading system. http://www.audiogon.com/scale.html

Buyers at Audiogon tend to be very picky on cosmetics.

+1 The typical eBay "excellent" would be about a 7 on the Audiogon scale.

It's been a little while since I sold at Audiogon, but I think you get 3 pics for the basic listing price. The more you can post up the better. Take additional pics even of you don't put them in the ad. Serious buyers will frequently want shots of all sides.

Accept Paypal if you can. New sellers who only take MO or other less safe payment methods will have a harder time selling. Build the fees into your price. Personally, the "add 3% for Paypal" nonsense is a turn off.
