No.. one thing I didn't put in the story (aside from the dogs) was that Andy had this annoying practice of doing an eBay search, clicking on Sold Listings, and then sorting from highest to lowest, and assuming the highest price he saw was a price that he would get.

One should actually click on Completed Listings, because then you'll see all the prices that things DIDN'T sell at, which is a bigger clue. And then you also have to assess your item fairly because small differences are important to collectors.

So he is pricing things way too high and getting nothing

I don't expect there will be a Roadshow Antiques moment where someone tells him one of his pieces of shit is worth $20,000.
