Thanks for all the replies. I think we'll list it on ebay with whatever reserve he decides, and see what happens.
If anyone wants to drop $450 on it, hit me up! J/K
It cost you nothing to ask for that, even on eBay. List it for an outrageous number, then if no fish bite, lower the price a bit and cast your line again.
If you see a few people "watching" your listing, you probably have some who are interested, just not at the current price.
