I posted some various things online and on craigslist lately and marked everything "OBO". I've not had a bite on anything, not so much as a tire kicker. I've got hundreds of dollars in parts and stuff that seem like I couldn't give them away. Is this the norm right now?

Times aren't like they were from 2000-2005, thats for sure. I sold my Camaro-Mustang DVDs on eBay for almost $20 each, those days are long gone, as I'm lucky to sell half the volume now at half the price.

Also, summer is just a bad time... days are longer, people are doing projects and burning the daylight hours. Winter is a better time for the market, as it gets dark early and people are indoors more or in the garage working on the project cars... and spending more time on the internet.
