BST Live Auctions Section - Suggestions

[ALBB]

I like the idea of Pre 80 stuff

I like the idea of ONLY cards

I like the idea of ending about the same time

I think a min bid might be better at 5 bucks...my thinking is..maybe give the seller a little more confidence or comfort about listing something that is clearly worth more then a buck... ...A guy might be " afraid " to list a 66T Banks for one buck...but at $5...maybe feels a bit " safer" . I think this way might bring out some more desirable cards

Good point. It seems like Leon (understandably) wants to limit the number of different auction sections, but my first thought was that three sections would be great:

1) Cards Pre-(whatever year is the cutoff, I'm fine with anywhere from '50 to '80)
2) Post-(cutoff year)

and 3) $1 start auctions, for cards or other collectibles

This way the starting bid for the first two categories could be $5, or $10, or whatever...
