| | | | | | (...) 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 (...) (24 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 (...)

| | | | | | 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 (...) (24 years ago, 22-Mar-00, to lugnet.market.auction)

The low bidders of the previous auction might decide to bid more than before on the current auction, and fight it out with someone else - making your profit larger. -Shiri (24 years ago, 23-Mar-00, to lugnet.market.auction)

By "all at once" I meant "all at the same time" not "all in one batch": having 8 (...) (24 years ago, 22-Mar-00, to lugnet.market.auction)

Battle droids, scout troopers, rebel pilots, gungan warriors and others are just common minifigs. I (...) (24 years ago, 23-Mar-00, to lugnet.market.auction)
