I post an auction every few weeks (about once a month or so). I mostly post Baseball but have thrown some Hockey and Football out there over the years. I was just about to post one today when I saw this and figured I would chime in.
Just my $.02 on what has worked for me-
- List for at least 5 days- not everyone looks everyday
- List for a low price - Mine always start between $5 and $20 and often complete for nearly 5x that amount
- Only bump on the last day to avoid bumping someone else's auctions and to make sure people know it is the final day
- Love the recent suggestion of posting end date and time in the titles
I know the guys that are mostly listing there and they are decent fellows, and some of their stuff interests me at times. However it could use a refresh and as much as I know Leon has mentioned not wanting too many sections I think a good fix would be to divide the section into three: High end auctions. Pre 1980 Baseball, and Everything Else.
