Hello, fellow goons! I've got a question to drop by for you. I'm looking at selling my PDP M5 set. I love drumming, and I'd love to keep them and keep learning to play, but I simply don't have the time anymore after starting college, and I don't see that changing in the near future. Anyway, the set's a few years old but has been pretty lightly and infrequently used. With it I have DW 4000 double bass pedals, a 13" Sabian high hat, a 14" HHX crash, and a 20" Sabian ride. Everything in the kit is in pretty good condition, the only anomaly being that the 20" ride doesn't have the top of its stand (the part that is at an angle) and sits at the top of the vertical part of the stand. This is because it's heavy enough that my stand kept falling over with the angled part and I lost the top part of the stand in a move. My question is, how much should I be selling this for? Since all of the equipment new cost over $1500, I figured that $500 would be a reasonable price, so that's what I put in on eBay for (link here with pictures). But I'm not getting any bids, so I'm wondering if I've overpriced the item. Does it look more used than I'm imagining? Is the set just not worth that much? What should I do to improve my chances of getting this sold?

Fake edit: if you're wondering about the fact that I've made the "price" $100 and the shipping $430, that's because I didn't want eBay taking such a large percentage of my profits. I understand it's a relatively common eBay practice.
