    I don’t remember for certain but there was one on my watchlist for 3-5 years before being marked as no longer available earlier this year.

    1955 DD Lincoln. On my want list for 60 years.

    Edited to say that I read the question wrong. I read "want list". Being well over 60 years old is my excuse. :D

    Assuming you mean my eBay watch list, I am sure there are some that have been there for years. I have around 350 items saved right now, of those I think maybe 20% are auctions, the rest are BIN listings that float across my screen once a month before they renew.

    Incomplete planchets wanted, especially Lincoln Cents & type coins.

    I'm confused by the question.

    EDIT: Never mind, I got it.

    Charging listing fees would clear a lot of garbage and "museum pieces" off ebay.

    Collector, occasional seller
