FA: getting killed on eBay this week ...

[Ken Barr]

FA: exonumia closing on eBay Monday and Tuesday ...

So, as an experiment, I started twenny-five lots of tokens
and twenny-five lots of medals on eBay last week, all starting
at a ninney-nine cent starting bid (versus the normal five bux
each I wudda started them at). I wanted to see if eBay's claim
that low starting bids attract more/better bidders was true ...
but so far it ain't. Many of the lots still have one bid at
ninney-nine cents, and many others have no bid at all. (I'm
not exactly which closing scenario I'd prefer to see happen ...).

I'm HOPING for a large number of last minute snipers ...
we'll see ...

Closing tonight, Monday, June 14th:
Twenty-five different California merchant trade tokens.

Closing tomorrow night, Tuesday, June 15th:
Twenty-five different lots of commemorative medals.

I wish you good luck with the snipe hunting! One thing I've
noticed in the past is that with material like this, it
really helps if you give a little information about the issuer.
