Default Is ebayer Yepbg on this site?

was wondering if you could lower some of your prices...then your cards may sell...I seem to be looking at the same cards you have for sale for 4 years now! they are double or triple recent selling prices...

to make matters worse, you have now cluttered up the Auction side also (starting at the same overpriced BIN starting points)

do you think switching from $600 Bin to $600 starting auction is going to help sell off the stale inventory?

ps..is there a way to search for a category (say E90-1) and block a certain seller from showing up

pss...is there a way to benefit by not selling cards? (trying to prove their value without actually selling it mabybe for Ins purpose?)

thanks

Top right of the ebay page, click on "advanced". Scroll towards the bottom to "sellers". Type in seller's ID and "exclude". And his entire inventory is removed from searching You are not the first to mention his "prices"

I think it is just a selling technique. I know a seller that lists 1989 error cards at 5-10 times what they normally sell for. They have a 10 card lot on ebay now for $4500 that is really worth about $300. The seller does not need the $ so they do not care how long they set there before selling. Then once in a great while they run into a "sucker" and they just made more $ off selling 1 card than most make off selling 20-50 cards.

He has a lot of cards, most overpriced, but the frustrating thing to me is he doesnt provide back scans. So many cards have back variations that would make the difference in buying or not, even at a healthy price. I need a couple of cards to finish one of the few sets I have been putzing around with for years. I dont even mind overpaying to a certain extent. The card has been listed and re-listed many times and for many months. I sent an email requesting a back scan as the front looks too good to be a Poor as graded by PSA. I assume the back must have damage, though nothing is noted in the description. He didnt reply to my first request for a scan, and I sent another request last week. Received no answer to that one either. I am not sure how (or why) you would run 30 day auctions with minimal descriptions, no back scans, price the product considerably higher than actual value, and repeat the process every 30 days, over and over. I suppose each to their own when it comes to marketing and customer service.

I've had nothing but good dealings with Brian for many years, and found him to be flexible on pricing. Perhaps just making a reasonable offer would yield some results, always worked for me.

He has been friendly to converse with in my situations but we have never got to a point where we could actually get something done. His pricing never got down to this stratosphere. He has one card right now that I would like to have. He has $950 on it. It is worth about $100-$125. I paid that much for a similar but nicer one. No need for me to make an offer on it as it is 700% too high. And he is a member of this board but I don't think he reads it often or has posted.

Always lists for 3x actual value or more. It would be nice to see backs scans and enlargements, but I'm not holding my breath.

As it is I almost feel like his cards are my cards-- I certainly see them more often than my own.

Bought from him before and yes he lists cards high. However, he will listen to reasonable offers and does a good job getting cards to you. Never any issues dealing with him.

If the BIN price is insanely high I don't even make an offer. There's no point. I've seen a lot of insanely priced cards on eBay from various sellers (not just this seller) but due to their listed prices I won't even bother making an offer because even a fair offer (based on reality) will appear to be low-balling.

+1. I have had nothing but good dealings with him but he won't come down very much on the cards The cards I purchased from him have been great and his customer service is also top-notch. I think he is first rate but, yes, I'd like to see him come down a little more on the prices and many of his cards would sell quickly....

Default Yep

Agree with Anthony....and Ken. I have made him offers on his cards that he has accepted at prices I found reasonable. Maybe he has just adopted Levi's business plan ( I buy from him too)
