Great point, marketing is very important.
Also, great pictures as well.
Try searching the web first, see whats out there and how it's marketed, as well as what it's worth. When you dig up some history on the subject you can play it out for all it's worth. Cut and paste some of it into your auction, but only a little. You don't want to steal someone's intalectual property you know. And defenatly don't copy another eBay auction. That will get it shut down.
Then go to eBay, and see what the item is selling for. Right now eBay is having a "sale" of their listing fees. List the item for $9.99 or less, and use a gallery picture for 35 cents, and there are no listing fees. Just the 35 cents for the gallery picture, which I find crutail to success. All the extras over that are just a waste of money (unless you have 5 or 6 pictures, then get the picture pack for $1.00). Keep in mind they will still charge Final Value fee based on how much it sells for, and PayPal will take a cut (PayPal seems to be they best way to go, at least for me).
