[MOPO] Reserves on ebay

2005-10-11 Thread Claude Litton
Here is a question for the group.  Do you bid against reserves?  I personally will not chase reserve prices.  I will place a low bid that I know will not meet the reserve and then snipe at the end.  However, I cannot understand the reason for them.  Why not put a starting price on the poster

Claude: I am both a buyer and a seller, and I find reserves annoying.  In honesty, if there is a reserve on an ebay item, I am often much more reluctant to even bother with it. I may possibly be listing some posters and lobbies on ebay in the next few weeks, and do not plan to use reserves.

I tend to agree with Walter on this one from a theoretical point of view.  In a live auction, the auctioneers will start an item often below the reserve andthe buyer will usually not know the reserve, although most of the time thereserve is about 20% below the low estimate.  An internet "auction"su

I agree with Walter and Kirby. While "reserves" have always been part of the auction experience, in a market like eBay they are pretty much a waste of time. As sellers, we just list the minimum price we would be happy to accept for any item. If it goes higher from multiple bids, that's even bette

If Paypal corners any more of the online payment market everyone, particularly an individual who is more buyer than seller, is really in trouble. The so-called resolution program is worthless when it comes to trying to recoup payment when there is nondelivery by a big seller. There is a more

Although I can’t say that I avoid auctions with Reserves, I usually will not bid until the Reserve is met.  I’m primarily a collector but as with most collectors, I sell items from time to time.  I can understand placing a reserve on an item even though I don’t like to see them when I’m bid
