well it took some time but i got my 3 pocket watches on ebay tonight.
I'm not to sure about ending on a friday night, but with the holiday many have the week off.
im not going to post links to it as i am easy to find on ebay if you want to see the auction.
but here are some pictures.

the last one i sold for $237.
ill post results when its done.

Good luck. I have done well buying PW's at auction and reselling on Feebay. Generally much interest and lots of bids. It's one item that seems better not to BIN.

well, they sold. i can't figure out the ebay watch buyers.
the ones that cost the least and in the worst shape went for the most.
cost $15, 25, 25, 30. = $95
sold $ 237, 77, 50, 60. = $424
Minus ebay paypal and shipping fees. a profit of about 364.
i think. not sure, used 14% for ebay and paypal fees to figure.
i think i could have started them higher, but it's quick profit anyway.
i will be buying more when i see them cheap.
