Default Not A Good Day For Gurnseys

Posted By: Jeff Lichtman

I have to laugh at some of the comments here directed towards auction house consignors with delusional values for their cards: have they all ended up on the BST here? Look at the mindest, it's the same: list an item for 2-3x what it's worth (as easily verified by checking out the VCP); hope some poor bastard bites; lower the price once, twice, three times -- and then off to ebay! Everyone pleads for cards and balls, etc. just to be auctioned off with a $1 starting price but the truth is sellers don't want auctions anymore: they want minimum prices met and anything higher is just a bigger score. You wonder why ebay will probably soon go to a solely fixed-price format...well, there's your answer.
