    I've never bought or sold anything live on ebay. Do you think it would sell fast?

    If you set it at no reserve I guarantee some one will put a bid on it. I mean think about it people from all over the U.S. will look at it compared to people local to you (craigslist).
    Most places ship fish anywhere between $30-$40 so I would put something between there for shipping costs. I have never seen how to pack a fish but I garuntee you can find something online. Just with the trigger when I had mine I had to use like 5 bags as he bit a hole all the way through to the 4th bag.

    I'm really not experienced with shipping fish, how much do you think I should sell for + shipping? and where to ship from?

    selling a fish like that would not be worth the hassel to ship and everything, just post it for 20 or if you want it gone that bad 10

    I would just put it at no reserve and see if anyone bids on it or a buy it now at 25 + w/e it costs to ship. I would put it at $30 and see call fed ex and ups on monday to see the exact costs.

    Like oceanparadise1 said a fish like that doesn't seem to be worth the hassle, but I want it gone this weekend.
