john/z28jdI just thought of that too but i guess with a card like this if the seller doesnt get any good offers he might not think its worth what hes asking when in reality he could just be getting lowballed by everyone
Say if you were willing to pay $1500 for that Ewing but you offered just $1000 on it and no one else made any good offers,you might actually get it despite the fact it would go for alot more.
The other thing is ive been high bidder on something from the 1st hour it was listed and ended up winning for about what i bid to begin with.If that seller felt it was a good offer than i might just get it without waiting 7 days. Its obviously better for the buyer on lower priced items because theres less to lose if no one bids against you.
If someone had a card for $25 and i offered $20 because thats what i thought it was worth i might get it right then.
Higher priced items are much different,you might bid twice what anyone else was willing to pay and end up paying that amount
Its definitely better for the seller.If this guy got 3 $2000 bids(for example) then he might just decide to list the card so those 3 people bid against each other
