Posted By: <b>pete</b><p>why list a "hot" card on ebay for 10 days, especially if you have a high reserve ? Nobody really bids on the card until the last hour or two anyways...whats the advantage/disadvantage for listing a "hot" card for 10 days instead of 3 ? any thoughts or am I just being greedy and wanting my money sooner ?<br />pete-

Posted By: <b>jay wolt</b><p>PETE - I run all my auctions 10 days. In limiting it to 3 or 5 days, you may find a potential bidder is away from his computer and misses your auction. All ya need is just 1 or more bumps and it will be worth the extra fee and time...jay

Posted By: <b>Dan Bretta</b><p>I try and educate my wife about everything I add to my collection so that when I die she won't take it to the Goodwill. I'm actually hoping that my 4YO son will take up my interests and I can give it all to him someday.<br /><br />
