barrysloatePaul- that is a fair point, but there is a distinction between kabbala bracelets and vintage baseball cards.
Collectors will compete fiercely for scarce and desirable vintage baseball cards. Will that same competitive spirit apply to the bracelets? Some things would do better at a fixed price, such as a toaster oven or a power tool. Could you see two bidders sniping on a new toaster oven?
I understand putting some high end items up for very wishful prices is a good idea. I hate to see my best items sell for less than top dollar myself (but it happens). I think though that these high BIN prices also trickle down to many less than top drawer items too; and there are dealers who put a thousand cards up on ebay dump days, and maybe 1% of them sell.
