    Julie you may not know much about eBay but you sound very knowledgeable because those are some very important things to consider. I've been selling on eBay for years and years had my account suspended once but managed to beat their system and got back in the game with a new account. You have to have a lot of patience and tolerance to sell on eBay and you must always and I do mean always put the customer first because they will always be right. Ebays fees will eat you alive though, I used to buy and sell cell phones on eBay because it was and still is a hot market but now I just sell simple car parts whenever I can because I pretty much don't pay anything for them so I can afford Ebays fees I think lol.

    Try this for testing"].http://www.amazon.com/Drive-Adapter-...4753741&sr=8-1It just plugs into a usb port. Will Work with SATA or IDE and it's only about $9. This is a quick and easy program to use to test the drive http://www.seagate.com/ww/v/index.js...00dd04090aRCRD.
    As for ebay, the first 50 postings have no charge to post your listing. You will be charged 9% of the sale price. Nothing if it does not sell. When I sell hard drives on ebay, I list them as not working for parts or repair unless they test as good. People still buy them at more than scrap. That way my feedback score is high and I am being honest with the buyers. No problems with ebay account.
