We could go the ebay route with some things. Its kinda
hard, with what we have to keep up with now already.
We also have not gone the route of selling the last few
copies of anything on ebay for $100 or whatever. Which we
have mixed feelings about doing.

If the bids go that high on thier own then there's nothing to feel bad about, now if you start it at an outrageous amount that's a little different.

True. The market takes it where it goes. I don't think there is anything wrong with that...especially if it means more good music sooner for the rest of the fans.

You know, you could always experiment by putting a copy of neverhood or something like that on ebay with a buy it now option that is the same price as the webstore. Way more people know about ebay than here so if sales slow down, it might be worth a try...

I wouldn't have a problem with you selling the last few copies on e-bay, even if they went for $100 or more. I just wouldn't want new releases put on e-bay where they all went for over that much. Then I wouldn't be able to afford very many new releases. Of course, if you had the Buy It Now option, then I'd just do that!
