I’ve launched an eBay store for OYB.
I’ve had the Outyourbackdoor username there for a few years, which I’ve used to sell luggage, books, magazines and other goodies. Heck, Martha and I have been eBaying since it started and we together have 1000+ sales with a 100% rating since, like, 1994.
But I’ve ramped things up there, with over 100 items for sale now, mostly books. I’m even using eBay to spread the OYB indie outdoor culture word! I add little articles to the end of my listings and use my storefront to push the DIY / local-style message. I’ll keep changing/updating the pics and reports. Hey, go where the people are, right?! : )
I keep various bike books and mags for sale there via “Buy It Now,” plus OYB luggage.
Here’s the link: stores.ebay.com/outyourbackdoor
The big thing for this time of year is that right now I’ll soon have a couple sets of used XC skis for sale, in case anyone is interested.
*Fischer 205 newish-era Crown nowaxers for touring, wonderful all-rounders
*Fischer 210 RCA waxable sport-training classics, soft, 47mm, for in-track use
They’re $30-50 via BIN or you can bid on them. With $25 shipping. It’s getting harder to find full-length skis.
I can install 3-pin or SNS bindings for $10, or NNN for $30. I could add base-waxing on the glides and silicone on the grips for $5.
