It is hard enough talking to him in discussions of maintaining his Mercedes. The Mercedes is another long time customer and is an older fella that does not do ebay. He is trying to liquidate some of his rolling stock.

Wow I wish I had his problems with rolling stock LOL.
On the subject of "sellilng for a friend" I think the main thing is to not just use those words without some additional and credible context, as they've been worn to death on both eBay and Craigs/etc.
Sometimes it seems like every second seller is selling a car he bought for a spouse, or a relative's car, or has to leave the country (this is my evergreen favourite).
I bought my '85 from a "selling for an elderly friend" listing on eBay and I won the lottery on that one. My previous car, the '80 wagon, was a "sellling for my dad" proposition and well... errr... not so much....
