Should I auction this pin?

I was just wondering what people's opinions are on whether this pin would be a good one to auction? While I still collect Sleeping Beauty and this pin isn't a spare one, I must admit that Aurora isn't my favourite Princess and this is my least favourite of the Designer Princesses. However, even so, I wouldn't want to trade auction off a pin that I still like and want if people don't think it would attract a lot of interest. But I am really keen to do an auction as I always thought they were very fun, and it's nice getting new pins.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. :)
 
To give you an idea, you can look at past auctions when others have auctioned her off and see what sort of bids they've received? That is not to say that you will get the same bids, or same caliber of bids, but it will give you a reference point. You might also want to put her up for "Trade" and not Trade Auction to see what people offer first, since Trades you have the option of declining and Trade Auctions you don't.
 
Any time you auction an item you are taking a risk... My best advice to get items you desire is to take the time to add pins on your wants list that may not necessarily be what you want, but may be a good trader in the future... This will give members more items they can bid with and allow you more options to select from...
 
Looks like you have a few offers of people who are willing to trade for this beauty. Myself included. I have quite a few of your wants and willing to multi-trade. I would love to have this pin for my collection. I think maybe looking through a few peoples traders who have expressed some interested you might find something you like :)
 
Thanks for all the messages and advice. :) I've decided to put the pin up for a special birthday auction, as it looks like there is quite a bit of interest and I've always found auctions fun to do. Good luck if any of you decide to place a bid. :)
