John, Looks like lots of good parts, good photos, and well organized. Nothing I need, but I like to have lots of spare parts.
Will you ship stuff and if so, what are your terms and limitations?
Thanks, and GLWS

Edit: Ok, figured out the shipping. It's all pretty simple, from an individual item display you can enter info for an estimate. EBTH handles the sale and shipping and the individual seller is pretty much out of the loop.

A couple random pics from the page:

Yes, the shipping calculator is clearly the shortcoming of that web site. It looks like the shipping estimates changed on a few items when I came back to check on some bids. Without some sort of verification or guarantee on the shipping cost, there's no way to know what a bid will actually cost you.

Figured it out. The shipping calculator is not 'smart'. Probably a simple algorithm based on the dimensions entered for the item. Lots of size errors if you look.
Here's the carpet. Grey carpets are much bigger than black.
