What is everyone's opinion on when to list high grade sets on ebay? What I mean is, do you wait until there aren't many of the same set listed, or do you list the set in direct competition with other sets of around the same grade?
I have a set listed now that doesn't often have more than one at any given time being auctioned. I noticed the other day when I started to list it that there were 2 others around the same grade or slightly lower (according to the description) being auctioned this week. I decided to go ahead and list mine too in direct competition because I always scan every card close up and give everyone an idea of exactly how good the set is. Of the other two, one has 3 pictures and the other has 1 picture, neither has close up scans of individual cards. To no surprise, mine is doing better and I believe will get a premium over the other two.
What are other sellers thoughts on this?

The marketplace always seems to take care of it for me.
