But primarily for the black 1x16's - is it _just_ that I'm asking a
buck fifty for them that makes them undesirable or is it the lot size?
I wouldn't be overly opposed to cutting those lot sizes, but the whole
point now is to make things as easy as possible so I can squeeze
handling the auction into an hour or two each night, so I don't want
to go too far.

I'm deterred by the price, $1.00-$1.25 each and I'm in for at least one lot of
10, maybe two.  That extra $.25 just exceeds what I am willing to pay,
especially for a larger quantity.  The 2x2x11 pillars are worth $1.50 to me,
but they are only available in one set whereas the 1x16 bricks are available in
a variety of sets and colors.

Well, that makes sense.  All the black 1x16's (still 3 lots of 10) can
now be had with a bid of $12.50.  I deleted the gray ones, though.
Crazy of me to do without those anyway.  We'll see if they go now.


Oh, and leave those red windows and white arches on eBay alone.  I
want to finally win something for a change.  (Just kidding - if you
can outbid me then the nice seller deserves the money.)

I'm laying off these for now, but I'd easily place a $30 bid if it was some
unknown eBay bidder ;-)  The arches make this an even more attractive lot!

To be honest I'm less interested in the arches than the windows.
Wanna work something out if the bidding gets ridiculous?  I wouldn't
MIND having the arches, but the windows are what I'm after.

(...) of (...) I just bid on one lot of 10, if there is another one open tomorrow night I'll probably give in and bid on it too.
