SeatedNut Pillar of the Community United States 2797 Posts	Posted 07/17/2007 3:40 pm Double_Die, I do exactly that for Seated pieces, Barbers, and WL halves ... but there are too many Morgans ... it makes me dizzy. I go there and sit about once a week, but only last about an hour. Guess I'm gettin' too old! Report this Post to the Staff
doubled_die New Member United States 12 Posts	Posted 07/17/2007 3:56 pm Bobby That software image you included, is that from having an ebay store? Just curious. I had always just thought it was another route for them to get the sellers money and not a cost effective way to sell. I've never really researched it though. At any rate, thanks for the info. It's definitely useful. Report this Post to the Staff

tnwalker10 Valued Member United States 393 Posts	Posted 07/17/2007 4:04 pm From a buyer's perspective, when I first started on ebay, I was high bidder on several items that didn't meet reserve. Also I marked a few things so I could go back and see what the winning bid was. Quite often reserves were never met. This turned me against listings with a reserve. Now on items with a reserve I don't even bother to look, much less bid. However, if I'm searching for something specific and it has a reasonable buy it now price I will buy it.

basicbob101 Pillar of the Community United States 819 Posts	Posted 07/18/2007 9:41 pm Well I just unloaded a lot of bu rolls of State Quarters at less than face value, true my opening bid was $9.99 which is only .01 off, but with listing added to it x 20 rolls (2000-2005) it certainly didn't pay. plus a P & D Virgina Mint wrapped set in collector boxes for $25 for both rolls, can't find bank wrapped rolls on ebay for that. ASE proofs for less than cost, however items with reservere paid well and only one didn't sell. I too agree that the key words are the key to any auction. If you miss it there you might as well not list it. Report this Post to the Staff
USArmyParatrooper Pillar of the Community United States 1283 Posts	Posted 07/22/2007 11:44 pm I don't know why so many people make such a big deal about "Reserve Not Met". If it's a coin I'm interested in I'll put it on my watch list. I usually don't bid until the very last seconds anyway. By that time I can simply bid the most I'd be happy with, and if I don't win who cares? I move on to the next coin. That's why I don't know why it's such a psychological killer. Bid a price you're happy with, and if the reserve isn't met move on. Report this Post to the Staff
