For Sale - is this the right place to sell a catalog?

[shoestring]

I have a couple of things related to A H Fox guns and it's factory in Philadelphia. I'm a member here and was wondering if this was the appropriate place to sell some items. Thanks

Ok - Thanks - I didn't want to break rules. I would like to sell this little Fox catalog I acquired. I've never sold anything here and I like the wide net of E-Bay but you folks have been very helpful and kind so I wanted to try and sell here. Is there a way of bidding or setting minimums? Would appreciate a tutorial I guess. Here's some pictures - http://ketshalk.imgur.com (hope this works ok) - Thanks for help and/or advice in selling here.

We do not have the capability of running a auction. I would set your reserve (a visible reserve) and request offers by a certain date and time. High offer over your reserve wins the item. We would all appreciate a shot at your Fox catalog. Craig Larter

OK - Officially for sale - This little "Finest Gun IN The World" catalog measuring 6 1/4" x 3 1/2" is in pretty good shape considering it's age. Pictures should be here -http://ketshalk.imgur.com - I think $500 is a reasonable reserve and I'll call next Sunday (Dec 8th) 6pm central time the end of the sale. High bid at that time takes the catalog. It will be sent well protected and insured to it's new owner. If anybody has suggestions or comments about how to do this more fairly or efficiently please let me know; my desire is to sell whatever Fox stuff I decide to part with to people involved in this forum as you have all been very helpful and informative in the past. Feel free to ask questions or place bids here, with a PM or an email (tomgodshalk@yahoo.com) - Thanks in advance for your interest.

It occurred to me that there might be a question as to how many of these little catalogs I may have - This is the only one in my possession. My father, who used to run Fox Products, gave me some boxes of Fox Products stuff he ran across cleaning out his attic. Most have stuff and paperwork pertaining to stuff Fox made after selling the gun business. They made battery chargers, spare tire locks, putting greens..... all kinds of stuff. It seems as though Fox Guns kept, as an example or memento, one of a few types of advertisements they put out and I've set those aside. I know that there were a lot more types of catalogs and advertisements that Fox Guns used but these are the only ones surviving, as far as I know, with my family. There is one of these little catalogs, one spanish edition campfire catalogs and one each of a couple other little pamphlets/ads.


Current high bid:$800

UPDATE - After corresponding with some members here it's been pointed out that some particulars of the sale were either vague or unstated altogether. The few things that I've sold that didn't involve somebody coming to my home or garage, I sold on ebay so I apologize for my ineptitude. However a bidder chooses to bid is fine with me; email, PM or reply. I will try to keep the current high bid posted here. You can message me/email me with a maximum bid and I will bump your bid in $5 increments as it's seen here until your max bid is exceeded. Please don't expect ebay efficiency and timeliness or employ ebay last second bid tactics - please.

I'm going to post any changes in the bid for the little Fox catalog (described above) as a new post because when I simply edited the old post to reflect a new bid the thread icon didn't change to reflect new information.
