The beauty of selling on ebay is the double snipe. If two people decide to leave very high bids, your piece will sell for a crazy number. Now that will not happen all the time, but if you put up enough desirable material, it will periodically.

That doesn't generally occur in a catalog auction because bids increase in 10% increments. However, catalog auctions are more consistent than ebay. Ebay prices can be very low too. You just never know.
