Normally, you will get a premium for a nice bike like this one on ebay, IF you are willing to ship it for a reasonable price, IF you have good feedback on prior bicycle sales, and IF you do a really good job on the listing.
Craigs List is more convenient as a seller, but you have to be willing to drop the price somewhat, depending on your market.
I have only been selling bikes on Craigs List right now, but I will probably need to sell a couple of the niche bikes I have on ebay. Fortunately, I have a lot of feedback from other ebay sales, so hopefully I can garner sufficient interest.
The best way to make sure you get the least for the bike, is to sell it on ebay with either sky high shipping, or local pickup only. That pretty much eliminates the market. I have picked up a few good deals that way on ebay as a buyer.
In today's economy, around here, hard to break the $300 mark on a Craigs List bike. Your bike should.
