Not again! This is why I have a problem with PWCC!! Sorry for the rant!

Plenty of collectors are only online to bid because the PWCC auction is ending that night. PWCC auctions are an "event". Some guys that would have bid on your Lefty Grove just weren't aware of it because you didn't have 1000s of items ending that night to catch their attention.

It's really strange to me that anyone would expect that they can run like 15 auctions ending on a Sunday night and do as well as a juggernaut auction company. And that's just common sense without taking any of the other stuff into consideration.

Maybe it's because the search function works exactly the same for ALL sellers. It finds CARDS - the search feature could care less WHO is auctioning them off....if someone is searching for caramels, they would see PWCC's but not mine?? Sorry, I'm not buying it.

It’s all about the cards they get and the amount of cards they get ?

There's so much more to it than that. Bids will be higher across the board because so many more people are online during a PWCC auction ending night than another night.

Plenty of collectors are online bidding on a PWCC auction but wouldn't be there on a different Sunday when PWCC isn't ending.

Word of mouth also has something to do with it. With auction house stuff, people get excited and send messages to their friends. "Did you see ______ in the new _____ auction? Wow!"

That stuff doesn't happen for random sellers like you and I.

You guys are making it sound like there’s a lot of collectors who ONLY do business with PWCC....

I believe that to be true.
