I do, and I'm willing to donate to Wellylug the "success fee" that
Trademe charges for the purpose of running the auction.  (I'm also not
interested in the caddy -- I suspect someone who wanted to bid on it
listing it would just cause problems.)

If someone sends me a description of the item to put on a Trademe, any
details of the minimum price/reserve that they want on the item ($1?
More?), and how long you want the auction to run (3 days?  7 days?), 
then I'll list it.

I'd also suggest that as a one off exception an announcement post be
made to the wellylug list indicating this decision to sell it off, and
including the Trademe reference details.  (But no discussion on the
wellylug list; Trademe have a question/answer system for that sort of
thing.)  If there's general agreement on that, and y'all want me to list
it, then I'll make a post once it's listed.

Do keep in mind, however, that it's entirely possible someone else in NZ
will buy it and it will need to be sent to them.  A courier is probably
best, as is charging for the courier fees.
