Eric Eichelkrautis banking on Dan, is his name (or their name) for the higher prices he commands. Since he's been around for a long time as a seller, and probably banks on his reputation as a straight laced honest seller, he probably figures that he'll start his auctions just above what anyone else would sell it at, because he can. I don't know KY, but I just bought something from him, for the first time, and the deal went really smoothly. I think I paid a tad bit more than I would have liked to have paid (I do that occasionally anyways!), but I was satisfied in the end. As a small-time seller, I think I share Kit's mentality, in that as a trusted and well-known "good guy", he retains the right to push his price bar just a little higher. On the other side of the coin though, I think on average he starts his auctions way too high, and can't understand why people spend the money they do with him, when, if patience is used, it can be found on Ebay for much less.
