Ebay question for raw set builders

For those of you building raw sets, do you prefer the 'u-pick' auctions or do you prefer to buy lots?

I was going to try one or the other as a way to get rid of commons from the 60's - 80's and curious as to what others thought.

I personally have got some great deals on lot's, but as a seller that could be a bad thing. I once won a lot of 25 1971 Topps that averaged NM for .99 cents plus $2.50 shipping, great for me, but crappy for the seller.

We were stunned that another child of ours had been diagnosed. Please, if you don't have a favorite charity, consider giving to the JDRF (Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation)

  • Depends how far along the set is. Lots in the early stages, pick-ems in the final stages.

    I'm a nut for centering so I avoid lots. Gets pricey paying for shipping though.

    It does and after awhile you start to get doubles/triples etc.

    Lots. For the 94 Pinnacle Museums my search term must include the word lot.

    Definately agree with this statement.
