Well, that's it. I've got some vintage stems. I'm not saying it's
sensible, but let's say I thought it best to sell each packet off
seperately, EBAY charges would be a lot. It's quite expensive when
items you are selling only get a dollar/pound or two.

No, selling parts on eBay is definitely not worthwhile.

Yes, because watch folks don't always see a need for a part or parts at the time.

Best way is to maximise your takings is to let them sit on a website and hope in time they go one packet or item at a time. But, that could be such a long drawn-out affair. Not good when you want some cash in pretty quick.

How many folks have just binned the stuff. Probably lots. :c) And some of it good stuff too. But, just no demand.
