Just as mentioned above....the way the fee structure will be for sales vs BIN's is the way you get people to act in a certain way. For the most part people (myself included) are coin operated. We do what makes the most fiscal sense for us. Matt and I are discussing ways to make it fair for everyone. We certainly don't want the museum approach of ebay but at the same time we need to have an environment that is conducive to selling any way you want to.
There has been one late 1800's womens baseball cabinet, listed at $4200, for about 3 yrs (so it seems) on ebay. The thing is probably worth $50-$100. If it was cost prohibitive to list it, after the 50th time, the seller wouldn't do it. One other thing.....Matt informs me that after the beta that we hope to do soon, we might have to close down the site again for a short period of time, to do some updates. No doubt it will be well tested when we get to production. regards
