(...) No. When the high bid is retracted, the next highest bid will only be $.50 (or whatever the bid increment is) above the bid BELOW it. So if I bid $1.50, then you bid $30.00, then someone else bids $31.00 and retracts it, you only have to beat (...) (25 years ago, 22-Mar-00, to lugnet.market.auction)

(...) Hi Mike, I'm trying to understand how things are happening... When someone retracts a bid, the high bid should go to the next highest bidder, right?

(...) You'd think that. I got outbid in an auction recently and didn't get a notice.

You're right, but in this case I'm not trying to suck as much money out of people as possible. :-) $7.50 seems about the right price. Even better way to sell these for as much as possible would be to auction off 1 Darth Vader and then e-mail all the (...) (25 years ago, 22-Mar-00, to lugnet.market.auction)

You WILL get a lower price Dutch than selling them in individual lots, virtually guaranteed. What you seem to forget is that if you set 8 Dutch at $7.50 beginning price, that means 8 people can bid $7.50 each before any prices change. If you auction (...)

(...) That is not necessarily true. The price will go above $7.50 only if there are more than 8 bidders. If that is the case, the person who bid the lowest will be knocked off by the 9th bidder and so for. At any given time there are up to 8 high (...) (25 years ago, 22-Mar-00, to lugnet.market.auction)

(...) What he means is that by having 8 up for auction at the same time the prices will be lower than if you sold 1 per week or something. So they're being "sold all at once", just not necessarily all to the same bidder. Doug (25 years ago, 22-Mar-00, to lugnet.market.auction)
