First-Growth Bordeaux - How to dispose?

Right, I know the obvious answer is "drink it" but I've ended up with more of this than I will ever drink, and it's taking up too much room in my (small) cellar. It's mostly early 2000s vintages, Latour and Lafite. A few are from the 1990s and a couple from the 1970s. I also have some Pétrus and several different vintages of Leoville-Barton.

Thanks to the Johnnie Walker Double Black thread I have just learned that vendors are now selling scotch whisky on eBay via the pretense that it's the 'collectible bottles' which confer the value. It's not: http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from...All-Categories

Anyway eBay prohibits wine selling, even with the same disclaimers it requires for hard liquor. I know there are auction sites but the commissions are generally colossal. Any advice? TIA.
