Opportunity cost...
perfect timing for this discussion.
simple terms, opportunity cost is the benefit not received as a result of not selecting the next best option. Opportunity cost is a key concept in
economics, and has been described as expressing "the basic relationship between
scarcity and
choice".
[3] The notion of opportunity cost plays a crucial part in attempts to ensure that scarce resources are used efficiently.

My suggestion?
Place your non-selling, no-recourse, judgement proof, foreign held, only have 8 messages, new member, high dollar, no references, unvetted item on eBay.
When you do list on EBay, detail WHAT criteria you used to self describe the condition as “pretty good condition”. Did the clutch discs have more than 5 thousandths left of friction material? Are you representing a gear shop?
Are you a gear expert yourself?
The potential buyers now are insured, have your previous ratings on eBay available and you- you Sir have world wide visibility! And the ability to add to your ebay positive ratings.
Best of luck to you.
