Although I do sell my share of buy it now auctions , I find when I price very low and let the bidding go, it usually sells for more. I have even had buy it now auctions end up selling for more then the initial buy it now price !!
Start at 5 bucks, it might be a day or so for the first bid. Start at .99 and it will increase like mad right away !!!
I think theres ALOT of people on there that just plain dont understand how it works ,period .
I dont know why people bid more in an auction when you can buy the same item buy it now for less but they do . It's a bidding war thing . Thats the prime reason I never bid till the end. Let the person think he's got high bid all week and at the end, I come in and win.
