From ebay to major auction houses, it seems like a daily occurrence. Whether it\'s the auction house doing the bumping, or the consignor, collectors are becoming more and more fed up with the whole process.<br />\r\n<br />\r\nSo why are auctions so popular? They all go on way too late, many well into the next day, prices are generally sky high with bidders always complaining they paid too much, so why isn\'t direct sale more popular? It seems like two reasonable people could come up with a fair price over a ten minute phone call. Instead, collectors will stay up until 5:00 o\'clock in the morning to overpay for something that they might have gotten cheaper in a private sale.<br />\r\n<br />\r\nAnd yet it feels like a new auction house pops up every week. And direct sales seem to be in decline.

It may make it too difficult for anyone to top your bid, so that you will win the lot. If the increment were 2 percent, every time you bid you would almost certainly be topped. It does work both ways.<br />\r\n<br />\r\nI guess the part of the auction process I often miss is getting caught up in the moment. Because I ran my own auctions for many years, and because baseball memorabilia was my sole source of income, I rarely had the luxury of getting caught up in the emotion of bidding. I always had to look at the price of something more objectively, and did have to set limits. Maybe in that respect I missed out on a part of the hobby that others get to enjoy.\r\n		</div>\r\n		<!-' + '- / message -' + '->\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		<div style="margin-top: 10px" align="right">\r\n			<!-' + '- controls -' + '->\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n				<a href="newreply.php?do=newreply&amp;p=1366771" rel="nofollow"><img src="images/buttons/quote.gif" alt="Reply With Quote" border="0" /></a>\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n				\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			<!-' + '- / controls -' + '->\r\n		</div>\r\n\r\n	<!-' + '- message, attachments, sig -' + '->\r\n\r\n	</td>\r\n</tr>\r\n</table>\r\n\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- post 1366771 popup menu -' + '->\r\n<div class="vbmenu_popup" id="postmenu_1366771_menu" style="display:none;">\r\n	<table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="1" border="0">\r\n	<tr>\r\n		<td class="thead">barrysloate</td>\r\n	</tr>\r\n	\r\n		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="member.php?u=28">View Public Profile</a></td></tr>\r\n	\r\n	\r\n		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="private.php?do=newpm&amp;u=28" rel="nofollow">Send a private message to barrysloate</a></td></tr>\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="search.php?do=finduser&amp;u=28" rel="nofollow">Find all posts by barrysloate</a></td></tr>\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	</table>\r\n</div>\r\n<!-' + '- / post 1366771 popup menu -' + '->\r\n\r\n\r\n	</div>\r\n	\r\n		</div>\r\n	</div>\r\n</div>\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- / close content container -' + '->\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- / post #1366771 -' + '->';

I get they have to get paid but still. Oh well what ya goin to do I ask on here all the time for my 34 goudeys but no one ever has any and next week they are in an auction.

There is the build up and excitement regarding the possibility that one might win a card or piece of memorabilia. We all hope that we can possibility "steal" the item for a decent price. Hoping for a poor listing or perhaps a well timed snipe will seal the deal. We all analyze our bidding strategy. Do I use the big opening bid and hope to survive a last second snipe?  Or do I hide in the weeds, and grab it with a snipe in the final seconds.<br />\r\n<br />\r\nThe thrill of competing against another bidder drives the price up and up.

Just take a look at eBay now that it is predominated by BINs.  The amounts sought by sellers typically far exceed VCP values.  Auctions, with all their flaws, at least hold out the prospect of a buyer paying fair market value.<br />\r\n<br />\r\nOf course, once a person \'overpays\' via direct sale, he\'s then stuck with the item as he is unlikely to recoup his investment except by a similar direct sale.\r\n		</div>\r\n		<!-' + '- / message -' + '->\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		<div style="margin-top: 10px" align="right">\r\n			<!-' + '- controls -' + '->\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n				<a href="newreply.php?do=newreply&amp;p=1366798" rel="nofollow"><img src="images/buttons/quote.gif" alt="Reply With Quote" border="0" /></a>\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n				\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			<!-' + '- / controls -' + '->\r\n		</div>\r\n\r\n	<!-' + '- message, attachments, sig -' + '->\r\n\r\n	</td>\r\n</tr>\r\n</table>\r\n\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- post 1366798 popup menu -' + '->\r\n<div class="vbmenu_popup" id="postmenu_1366798_menu" style="display:none;">\r\n	<table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="1" border="0">\r\n	<tr>\r\n		<td class="thead">mark evans</td>\r\n	</tr>\r\n	\r\n		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="member.php?u=653">View Public Profile</a></td></tr>\r\n	\r\n	\r\n		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="private.php?do=newpm&amp;u=653" rel="nofollow">Send a private message to mark evans</a></td></tr>\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="search.php?do=finduser&amp;u=653" rel="nofollow">Find all posts by mark evans</a></td></tr>\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	</table>\r\n</div>\r\n<!-' + '- / post 1366798 popup menu -' + '->\r\n\r\n\r\n	</div>\r\n	\r\n		</div>\r\n	</div>\r\n</div>\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- / close content container -' + '->\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- / post #1366798 -' + '->';

They all go on way too late, many well into the next day, prices are generally sky high with bidders always complaining they paid too much, so why isn\'t direct sale more popular? It seems like two reasonable people could come up with a fair price over a ten minute phone call. Instead, collectors will stay up until 5:00 o\'clock in the morning to overpay for something that they might have gotten cheaper in a private sale.<br />\r\n<br />\r\nAnd yet it feels like a new auction house pops up every week.

That fact thus maximizes the demand side of the equation with regard to the selling price, which is what the seller\'s objective is.  Because of the potential for maximizing the seller\'s return, these auctions tend to draw out more of the truly desireable and/or rare items that are ordinarily not seen, making it a win-win scenario for seller, auction house and buyer.<br />\r\n<br />\r\nHighest regards to all,<br />\r\n<br />\r\nLarry\r\n		</div>\r\n		<!-' + '- / message -' + '->\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		<div style="margin-top: 10px" align="right">\r\n			<!-' + '- controls -' + '->\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n				<a href="newreply.php?do=newreply&amp;p=1367468" rel="nofollow"><img src="images/buttons/quote.gif" alt="Reply With Quote" border="0" /></a>\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n				\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			<!-' + '- / controls -' + '->\r\n		</div>\r\n\r\n	<!-' + '- message, attachments, sig -' + '->\r\n\r\n	</td>\r\n</tr>\r\n</table>\r\n\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- post 1367468 popup menu -' + '->\r\n<div class="vbmenu_popup" id="postmenu_1367468_menu" style="display:none;">\r\n	<table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="1" border="0">\r\n	<tr>\r\n		<td class="thead">ls7plus</td>\r\n	</tr>\r\n	\r\n		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="member.php?u=35763">View Public Profile</a></td></tr>\r\n	\r\n	\r\n		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="private.php?do=newpm&amp;u=35763" rel="nofollow">Send a private message to ls7plus</a></td></tr>\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="search.php?do=finduser&amp;u=35763" rel="nofollow">Find all posts by ls7plus</a></td></tr>\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	</table>\r\n</div>\r\n<!-' + '- / post 1367468 popup menu -' + '->\r\n\r\n\r\n	</div>\r\n	\r\n		</div>\r\n	</div>\r\n</div>\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- / close content container -' + '->\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- / post #1367468 -' + '->';
