^^ This!! ^^ I have done numerous successful flips from various auction houses to Ebay. Of course, I have had hiccups here and there but, for the most part, have been OK. I can count on one hand only the number of successful flips I have had from Ebay to auction houses, with fingers to spare.
Most people put placeholder bids in and the real action occurs in extended bidding. For instance, just a few days ago, Love of the Game Auctions had the #1 PSA ranked 1964 Topps football set sitting at $4500 with just over a day to go. It finished at $12,900 with the BP.

Let's wait until the auction is actually finished before we come to any conclusions.

<< <i>Great job by the ebay buyer noticing a tough set that would sell for more and putting it in its proper venue. Something like this should always be sold through an AH >>
I'm not impressed either. I am not entirely sure the Auction House was the proper venue for that item, even though it brought more money. It was picked up on Ebay via a BIN/BO. If the Ebay seller had utilized a true auction format on Ebay, it probably would have brought just as much there, if not more. Just the way things work. Sorry.....
Doing this . . .
Leads to a bad case of this . . .
Which inevitability ends up with some trying to . . .

this evokes thoughts more along the lines of a guy sliding into 2nd and a shortstop refusing to be intimidated.
<< <i>One thing to keep in mind, anytime is a good time for a safety bid!!! >>
Or the consignor could have accidentally bid on it

He's too busy flipping Jordan RCs for $8 in white meat to be troubled with any other revenue streams.
