hmm you never know sales is a funny industry. I once had a guitar listed for $2100 for a few months, no bites. Then I raised the price to $2400 and it sold within 72 hours. There are actually many, many examples in all areas of retail/sales where someone raised their prices and sales increased. It's a strange tactic but it works sometimes.
I think the psychology is that when the price is too low, the buyer starts to doubt the true value of the item, but when the price is higher the buyer says "hmm it must be valuable because it's so expensive" and is more likely to buy.
I think every Vermont collector looks on eBay, from noobs to pros cherrypicking R32s ..... We've all seen that holey coin at least a thousand times. It's a hole, yet read the flowery verbiage he tries to make into an historical attribute. Yeah.... right

Yeah, I love those phrases "carefully holed", and "strong date". Good fantasy. :-)

This is true. One of our local markets was selling canned goods one week for .97 each. The next week they put them out and advertised in their weekly flyer 10 for $10. People bought them without any hesitation. All in the marketing.

I had a 69 bug with a blown oil seal for $600 in the recycler for 3 weeks, Free adds automatically cancel after 3 weeks and I had to rewrite it, this time for a grand, I sold it that day for a grand

Why don't you "Make Offer" if you want it?
