Agree. This is why patterns are always BINs and never 99 cent auctions on eBay.
I wouldn't put widgets on eBay as 99 cent auctions either. Widgets have the opposite problem: supply greater than demand. If you list an MS-63 1881-S Morgan as a 99 cents auction on eBay, expect it to sell for $15 unless you have a huge eBay following.
$15 is probably what it should be selling for. Common. common. common.
Please sell me all your PCGS 63 Morgans - I'll even go to $18 each.
Yes, they are common. But legitimate wholesale price is well over $15 each.
The collecting public may be mesmerized by them but I am not. To me they are just common hunks of silver. I have none and want none.
That's pretty arrogant. You think the market price should be based on your preference?
I happen to think that many, many collectibles, not just coins are stupidly overpriced in today's market. Is it arrogance or is it just being smart? Perhaps I will be proven wrong when all of those new, young, wealthy collectors run up the market. They are out there, aren't they?
You might be right, but that’s an entirely different matter what you posted previously with respect to 99 cent auctions and MS 63 Morgan Dollars.

Well it is exciting to see the thread so active. At least the purpose of entertainment and information awareness was served. Hopefully others can avoid the same mistakes I made, or laugh in irony with me.
Best wishes and happy collecting folks.

Right on Rocco!

Sorry things went south for you on the auction. I've always been a bit shy of posting a $.99 auction. I do endeavor to learn from others experiences. Thank you for sharing your experience. Sorry the responses to a simple share went in so many directions for you. I guess a lot of people had a need to vent.
You feel for him, whhhaaattt? How about feel for those dying from the Coronavirus. This is only about money and not much of that either. Come on, this thread is garbage.
I take offense to your personal attacks.
You don’t know me, you put false statements associated with me, and called my thread garbage.
Then continue to post in it, and for some reason continue to abuse my decisions and character! This is a coin forum and this post is about coins and actions, not viruses or your made up “facts.”
Get a grip Re-alone, and let go of all that hostility you are spreading.
But the Op wished that this auction/business had stopped. Unimportant thread. Lets discuss coins and not dumb things that are done and then responsibility for the action is not owned. That's my point. Nothing to cry over here.
When did I wish the auction to stop?
How about discuss coins and not infect threads with your hatefulness?
How am I not owning responsibility for my actions? This entire original post was poking fun at MYSELF, admitting my mistakes and honoring the loss sale.
Your posts are a big red flag to your moral character, which I find lacking.

Even circulation coins at face value can be overpriced for precious metals people!
Right on Rocco!

Widgets on eBay do just fine at .99 cents w/no reserve. Everything else can be a total crap shoot.
