I think the $0.99 open auction will work great for commonly collected cards like Goudeys or T20xs. However for less popular sets it is very risky. Maybe a better title as others suggested would have helped, but I would not be surprised if it did not. For example I collect E121 American Caramels, I almost never see an auction with opening bid of $0.99. Usually it is buy-it-nows. The number of collectors collecting the more obscure sets is so low that if a few guys take a week off from looking at Ebay, you are not going to get your price. FWIW, I have an old saved search for M101-5s under $20. I don't get many hits other than reprints. I missed yours. Bummer for both of us :-)
Better luck next time!
