I listed my 360 from every10minutes on eBay. Here are my strategies so far

1) Good title, subtitle, and description (heavy on keywords)
2) Cross-listing in video game systems and video games
3) Bold title and highlighting
4) A pretty solid bonus
5) Several photos
6) No reserve
7) Started auction at $1

What's the best way to drive hella traffic to it? Any other ideas?

Find a forum that has fanatics and suggest that they're selling on eBay? I think you got the main good ones.

That's not a bad idea, but I don't want to be the n00b that joins a forum just to advertise...

You could say you're planning to purchase it on eBay yourself? I'm not sure what the rules are about that. Maybe say you're a "new" fan. lol wink

^^ only losers do that

You could join Livejournal.com and join the communities that are specifically made to post ebay auctions

Put it in your signature at forums you do frequent.

The auction itself is the main way of advertising outside advertising may not even help it.

Do you even have the 360 yet?

Seriously, it's no fun to sell things already in your possession.
