<P>Yes, at least in <TT>rec.toys.lego</TT>, dishonesty is rarely a problem. As
an auctioneer, however, you're the only one who has to be "trusted" -- your
bidders will not expect you to send them their LEGO<SUP><FONT SIZE="-2">®</FONT></SUP> items until you have
received their money.</P>
<P>If you run a good, smooth, fair auction, people will come back, and word of
your fairness and honesty will spread. If you run a sleazy, dark, filthy
auction, people will steer clear of you next time, and you will not build a
loyal following.</P>
