Suggestions for a good place to sell a Seiko mod
I have a SRPD71k1 mod that I built while I was saving for my Seamaster 300. I added a lumed ceramic coin edge bezel, lumed steel chapter ring, AR sapphire crystal and picked up a few straps for it. It’s a fun cool Lume Monster but it has been replaced by the 300. What is a good venue to post it up for sale? This was my first foray into moding (other than replacing crystals). It came out nice but it was always meant as a distraction to keep that itch scratched and me from more expensive purchases lol.

I’m west coast USA if that matters.
eBay is usually the best bet. They do charge a hefty commission

Yeah, they charge so much these days I’ve basically stopped listing. CL has gotten weird and I’ve been off FB since before marketplace was a thing. I thought there might be a Seiko mod group or something along those lines.
There are modding and seiko groups on Facebook, and the market place might be a good way to sell as a first option. But there's not much security, especially if your posting it, so advertise face to face transaction with either cash or bank transfer only. I've sold loads of stuff this way and even bought a couple of nice watches. And if you get no interest you can always try other ways.
