sorry to bother you but may i ask what this is AND What it is used for ? i see your new to listia so WELCOME TO LISTIA , On that note if you dont know how listia bidding works and maybe you do but if you dont and i tell you AND This isnt an item in demand by many you may end up wanting to save it UNTILL YOU Earn your wings ( in 10 auctions time i think its ten , you can set your own prices then called GIN Auctions
the way it works bidding is the bid only goes up just high enough to beat the previous bidder, so if im 1st bidder and i bid 5000 it would only show a bid of 1 credit and if no one else bid id get it for that, If the next person bid less than my highest bid id stay the high bidder BUT It would go up to what they bid,lets say they bid 200 ,than it would show 200 as the high bid,even thou i placed a bid of 5000 , what we bid is what were WILLING TO Pay and its not always what we end up paying, so it someone else comes along and bids 25.000 they beat my bid im no lonhger high bidder BUT IT ONLY Goes up enough to beat me so it would go to 5025 I HOPE That makes sense, Basically the more bidders the better BUT ONLY TAKES 2 REALLY Wanting it to battle each other and raise that bid, Reason im telling you now , MAYBE This is a popular item and wont matter BUT If its a rare item to want or need you may end up with a low winning bid,, it could be worth 500 dollars but if only one person bids they'd win it for 1 credit and im not wanting that to happen to a new member, again i could be wrong it onlky takes 2 really wanting to battle each other but usually it take a number of bidders to make it worth it,, FORGIVE ME If i offended you its not my intention , If you werent new id not have butted in, Reason i jumped to say is you can do what you want B 4 The 1st bid gets placed, after a bids placed its too late to take it down MAYBE And save till you can get an asking price, BEST OF LUCK I Hope you do well ,listias great, i love it , hope you'll love it too =))
hey what do i know this could be wanted by every one who knows what it is ,i just hope there all on this week to see it, not every one is one every week, last mystery auction for a specific item i listed it went for approx 8000 but this week because more collectors are on than last week its already reached 30.000 and still has 2 more days left to catch bidder attention,, I Wish someone had told me how bidding works when i started, for 1st two mths i thought i was profitting big only to learn i was spending more EVERY TIME Just shipping than i was ever getting in credit value and thats also me losing the cost of the item , I Made a few adjustments,listed smaller items fit in flat envelope ,small item higher value so never lost on shipping costs anymore, BUT LOST FOR 2MTHS Maybe was longer, bad memory, Swore id try help anyone from mistakes i made,, now i may have made a fool of myself,maybe youll have 20 bidders and end up a winning bid of 300.000, last comment , Everyone does better after they have "feedback " thats winners saying yes got your item and all went well, Some bid anyway no matter what ,some wont bid till they ee proof you deliver, I LOVE Listia it really is a great site , great members , free stuff from all over the world,items many you just cant get anywhere else, ,, -- MY GUESS Is its plumbing , Good for gardening , like water sprinklers ,that sort thing ? well might be awesome time of year , might be best bid we ever see here on listia, i just wanted you to be informed, if you already knew ,i wasted both our time and again i'm very sorry,,,, better safe than sorry , P.S., If ever want theres an UPDATE Button at very top your auction , can add details,messages up till last day, 24 hours b 4 ending the update button gets removed,,
