I suspect that we would be unlikely to get more than half that were we
to sell it direct to a dealer, and goodness only knows if we were to
sell it privately. It's a bit of a gamble
d let them do as they will after
that.
One risk here is that the digitisation would lower the marketable
value of the final item, but I don't know how we'd quantify this one
way or the other.

On the format, a wiki is practical for our users, but not for people new to
the system - even if they are comfortable editing, using a complicated
table is definitely a deterrent. We actively discourage posting contact
details, for obvious reasons, which adds an extra hurdle to confirming - as
