Unfortunately, I really get the impression that the people who actually buy these zines aren't in touch with the rest of fandom or they would know about zine websites where you can buy the same zine for half or a third of the price. Out of ignorance or disinterest, they've never connected to fandom.

I normally sell my zines through groups (it's easier in that you reach just those people who are fans of that particular pairing,) but if that fails, I have no problem at all trying to sell them on eBay. Of course, my start price is usually around what I tried selling them on the group. The fact that I've been able to sell zines on eBay after not finding a buyer within the fandom only affirms my belief that, for some, eBay is their only avenue for buying zines.
