Default A new concept....Vintage Baseball Card Forum Auctions?

Posted By: Ted Zanidakis

Sounds good to me.....provided you don't have 10% increments when bidding.

Mastro, REA, etc, etc, have this ridiculous bidding practice. And, that's why I avoid these auctions.

Why can't they take a lesson from Ebay.

People.....do you realize that with 10% increments, the starting base price doubles every 7 bids.....

and, quadruples by the 14th bid.....and is 8 x the startng price by the 21st bid.

This "compounding" is one of the main factors that sky-high, crazy selling prices are being realized
in these auctions.

LEON please follow the Ebay example.....if you proceed with this idea.
