you put an item on Ebay with a $4.99 start price hoping for it to maybe hit $10 and with in an hour of it being listed you have two different buyers ask if you'd be willing to put a $100 buy it know on it. Its good to finally have something go for more than i thought it would.

    Hopefully you did not end it to sell it. 9 times out of 10 you have people email you with those type questions it will go for much higher than their offer.

    it's an autographed 8x10 of a retired wrestler. no i didn't end it. thought about it but decided against it. it's got 4 days left and is only at 15 bucks or so right now but has quite a few watchers. we'll see where it ends up.

    Yes agree dont end it.

    I had an item up for auction that I felt would go for about $100. I was offered $250 for it and was close to ending the auction. I posted a similuar question on this board and everyone said let the auction finish. I let it finish and was stunned when the final price was $650. Real happy about that choice.

    I love it when I list a card on this sight and get lowball offers and then put it on Ebay and get 3x what I was offered here!

    Do you ever see a lowball bid on ebay (even if it isn't the winning bid)?

    All the time, that is why I always put a reserve on any item I list.

    I do like to trade and do business with you guys. But some of the offers? Come on!

    I was burned on a couple, too!

    And let me clarify my statement, pretty much all of the regulars here are straight shooters IMO, but many times I have listed cards for sale here and get PM's or even emails from posters who I have never seen or heard of, I think alot of outsiders surf through the BST forum checking out the action.
