You should wait until everybody else is done selling it for less.. could be a while. :mrgreen:

Of course, if you think of yourself as a wholesaler, and you ship in ziploc bags, you'll likely get ziploc prices.

Funny that even though the same guy has other auctions at no bid for $36 and BIN lots at $40.. they still bid it up to $48. Maybe I gotta start selling on eBay again. :mrgreen:

Buy it now for the price you want. It only cost something like 10 cents per month.

I have found that people will merrily bid it up, but they don't want to put in a BIN or a high bid to start. A $100 FV lot will easily go up to $170+ if you start the bidding at $0.01, but if you put a starting bid of $150, you may not even get a bid.
