You would have probably picked up a better price if you had described them as ideal for use with Nixie clocks and so on, and maybe split them into smaller lots. A different category wouldnt have hurt either. They should have gone for a couple bucks each at the very least.  |

Yea, I was disappointed in the price.  I have more and I can list then in smaller lots, as you said.
What category would be best for these? |

I'd probably list in two:
Electronics > Vintage Electronics > Tubes
Business & Industrial > Electrical & Test Equipment > Electronic Components
Spreading across two major categories! .. much better than being swamped in the LED cat.
You need some legitimate keywords and a better description. Selling is more than having the stuff to sell dude
Here are two keywords to start you off ( look them up on ebay! ) Nixie era , nixie clock
A lot of 8 would be good. 6 displays would make a nice clock, two for spare. I also see you have/had some with a V filament, might be worth displaying those separately or including one in the lot of 8.
Also try include sockets if you get them, but its not essential.
Pictures help, a lot. Also try get the datasheets, but again it is not that essential.
Finally, hook up with the yahoo nixie group and post your for sale link there. This isnt the best forum for this stuff.
