Question for the eBay mavens

#1 Post by gsabc » Sat Feb 02, 2008 7:13 pm

I'm really new at this, so this is probably a very naive question. I've got bidders on some of the stuff, which is good. Is it good to have watchers as well? One item has 7 watchers. Is a last-minute bidding war possible from them? Ghu knows I'll take the initial bid price, but more is always better.

Putting up the National Lampoons now. I was an early fan, and had a subscription in college. Which brings to mind another question: is there a way to remove the subscription label without damaging the cover?

Thanks!
I just ordered chicken and an egg from Amazon. I'll let you know.

watchers are always good, but don't count on them

Most bidders like to wait until the last minute or so, so let them run their course. Don't end early for anyone, as chances are it is worth more than what they offer.

Probably best to leave the subscription label alone. Collectors are funny, as while they may remove it later (and damage the magazine in the process) if you do it, it "lowers the original value LOL
