I haven't had a situation where I received a higher offer than I was willing to accept, nor am I even realistically hoping for it. In my experience, someone always starts extremely low, usually with a comment like "Just to get you started." Then other people see that bid and go up from there in increments, like with most auctions. Most of the people bidding are high-volume resellers looking for new inventory to flip for a quick profit.
The risk of someone coming in too hard and too high is quite low. For me, the sole motivation is to avoid having my posts buried too quickly by the popular resellers who post in every vintage group at least once a day.

The DOND sites get the most hate of all Facebook card groups and I don't understand why. You go in knowing the deal, either bid or move on.
And for those not wanting to engage with dealers at shows with no prices, I disagree. I have found many deals with these types of sellers over the years.
