I am trying to unload some "stuff" for a friend and posted an item
on r.b.m a few days back. I realize it's a moderated group, but
there seems to be little if any life over there. Comments?

Why not sell it on eBay? Yes, you pay a small amount for the service, but
IMHO it's worth it. I recently sold a small stack of gear on eBay and even
with the fees I paid I'm happy with the final outcome.
