Re: Need advice...about auctions of all things.. (Mon Dec 2 16:55:04 2002 )

It's a tight market out there these days.  
Hopefully things will look up after February.  
Unless you have sure-fire sellers, it's probably 
best to wait on auctioning cels off.

Yes, I am one of those who can believe that the 
attractiveness of a cel declines the more I see 
it on auction.  However, I am more of the 
opinion that the price (rather than the cel) is 
not attractive and may hope that the seller will 
eventually lower the starting price (after 
closing their auctions enough times without a 
winner) to finally make bidding worthwhile.

Finally, as a seller who sometimes finds himself 
in the same position, my advice is just to be 
patient.  You should post the cels in areas 
where those who are not regulars on this board 
might visit.  A web site is ideal; or you might 
even reconsider reposting the auctions (the 
people who scan auction sites can vary week to 
week).  It's all about exposure; the more and 
longer your cels are out there, the better the 
chances that elusive buyers you know are out 
there will eventually find your cels.

PS - Lower prices never hurts, either, although 
that does affect the amount of money you want to 
generate.
