Default You Don't Want to Believe It But It Is a Zero Sum Game

Peter- a battery is not something that you really can auction. It has a fixed price give or take a few cents. Could you see a bidding war with snipes set for a package of six AAA's? It wouldn't happen.

Auctions are effective for items that are rare and in demand. Then people will compete for them.
