I could swear
That Barry or it might have been another dealer that when no bids come in on items earliy -- that could be a sign that there is no interest.
From the seller's view, I understand this totally, instead of risking a major loss thay cancel the item and go home.
WHat might work for BOTH sides is for a "middle ground" bid to be put in, that middle ground bid would show the seller that the items do have interest but you are still not tipping your hand as to how much you want to bid. If I were a seller and I had a item which usually sells for $100 and saw a $50-60 bid, I might let it continue to run. If I only see a $20-25 bid -- I might say enogh is enough and take the item off.
