It's just too much effort to sell them...having to answer emails, re-arrange your schedule around people who will very likely be late, photo the bikes...
If you use ebay, having to wrap the parts, ship the parts, communicate with the buyers...
Not even mentioning the restoring...just the sales is too much work. That's a job. I have a job.
The older I've gotten, the less I want strangers showing up. I enjoyed it more when I was younger, but now it's a burden, and there's always something else it's interrupting. The inevitable having to walk people through the collection, like a curator or something. They're just bikes, even the really cool ones.
Maybe when/if I'm retired as a way to stay active. Right now, I talk to more than enough people in a day without having to sell a bike.
