I have never sold through friends and family.
I have heard from people who have that eBay does not offer their usual guarantees and protections with this service and have been burned badly as a result. I would recommend not to use this unless they really are friends and family.
While, as His TriumPhness would say, I am sure that "there are good people in Russia, some of whom are audiophiles", I nevertheless choose not to sell to Eastern Europe generally and Russia and Italy (you didn't know that Italy was in Eastern Europe, did you?) in particular, just too much potential for trouble.
I have have a pair of Altec 604C coaxial studio monitors that were recently rebuilt with company-spec parts: all moving parts were replaced.
I will be listing them for sale any day now to US, Canada, Japan, S Korea, Singapore, Hong Kong, U.K., France, Germany, Austria, Hungary, Spain, Portugal, Switzerland, Netherlands, Belgium, and Scandinavia only.
