Holiday Ebay sales - opinions please
 

Posted By: <b>Bryan Long</b><p>I think we may have discussed this before but I couldn't find anything in the search. I am parting with a number of cards and since I have no idea of a asking price I thought of putting them on ebay. My question is have any of the ebay sellers on the board noticed that prices drop dramatically over the holidays, especially Christmas? I don't want to put anything on ebay if the prices will reflect people not buying for lack of cash to spend on BB cards. Any opinions?<br />Thanks.
