Long beach impact to ebay?

I have a batch of nice coins to sell, several should go for a few hundred dollars (in theory). Do you think this is this a good week to start a 7 day auction ending next Sunday because of Long beach? The VAM market is thin, and I usually do no-reserve auctions with better coins. Am I taking more risk this week than others?

eBay is full of tire kickers, garage sale items, and rummage rats. I think life is full of risks but I highly doubt Long Beach will affect eBay or vice versa.

NEVER end auctions the Sunday that major shows end on (if possible AND/OR they are coins that are "thinly traded" AND/OR they are things you definitely don't want to take a hickey on).

Agree. I have some TT lots listed for the Monday after the show and it bugs me a little too. Anything that might have dealer interest is not good to list.
