Thank you for the feedback. Well it sold already. I guess the price was quite keen in hindsight.

I've added my other strip built too .. .with some more details this time and an auction format.

Thanks again.

: Hi Simon,

: I think you could add some more details to the listing to get more
: people interested. I think you can do this before there are any
: bids otherwise you can only add notes at the bottom (not sure on
: this, I've only sold a few things).
: There are going to be some folk looking who have little idea about
: what a strip built kayak is. Not all of them may want to paddle
: it, a lady in my club thinks that my strip build should be
: hanging on the wall with dried flowers in it!
: As its a custom designed piece noone has any idea whether they
: would fit into it.
: How big is it?
: How big a person will it suit?
: How much does it weigh?
: How much time would it take someone to build and how much would the
: materials cost?
: What is it good for? Fast or stable or rolls well.
: Does it have hatches, end toggles, a seat, a compass?

: I'd like to see it sold for more than your 'Buy It Now' price.
: Could you change that to a 'Reserve' price? That must be less
: than the cost of materials.
: Good luck. . . Ben
