  Re: Bid retractions (was Re: eBay dead again)
 
(...) Ahhh... That's really silly (or at least annoying). I wonder how many people do this to their own benefit -- get one throwaway hotmail account to do the retractions, then use my real account to place the low bid... Or maybe that was your whole (...) (25 years ago, 22-Mar-00, to lugnet.market.auction)
 
  Re: Bid retractions (was Re: eBay dead again)
 
(...) 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)
 
  Re: Bid retractions (was Re: eBay dead again)
 
(...) 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? Shouldn't that value have been somewhere within $.50 (or whatever the bid increment is) from (...) (25 years ago, 22-Mar-00, to lugnet.market.auction)

  Re: eBay dead again
 
Hi Frank, this is a guess but the problem could have been the pipe( internet link equipment) that connects to Ebay. sometimes I cant get to Ebay via my AOL account but when I use my other ISP it goes right thru. It's pretty frustrating when you (...) (25 years ago, 22-Mar-00, to lugnet.market.auction)
 
  Re: eBay dead again
 
(...) You'd think that. I got outbid in an auction recently and didn't get a notice. I didn't complain because I had decided in the meantime I had gone over the top on that particular item, so I was relieved I didn't have to buy it (I would never (...)

  Re: eBay dead again
 
(...) Crud. I wonder if they're blocking certain addresses. I haven't been able to get a peep out of the eBay site for over an hour now. I guess I won the auctions I was concerned about since I haven't got an outbid notice. (25 years ago, 22-Mar-00, to lugnet.market.auction)

  Re: FA: (eBay) Darth Vader Minifig (Dutch) x8
 
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)
 
  Re: FA: (eBay) Darth Vader Minifig (Dutch) x8
 
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 (...)

  Re: FA: (eBay) Darth Vader Minifig (Dutch) x8
 
(...) 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 (...)

  RE: FA: (eBay) Darth Vader Minifig (Dutch) x8
 
(...) 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)
