From time to time I have put our micro membrane boxes as well as larger
boxes on ebay, beginning at a minimum bid. Without exception they are
always bid right up to the list price on our website www.membranebox.com. I
seem not to be able to give any special auction deals!

Subject: Re: [meteorite-list] Fw: The Sniper Mentality
Years ago when I was still selling on Ebay, I had an interesting insight
in
the sniper mentality.
The auction was for a Tatahouine, about 4-5 grams, very nice but not
exceptional. With minutes to go, two guys got into a sniping war, I don't
know if
they were using a software or sitting in front of their computers but the
batlle raged with bids coming in every couple seconds. And when it was
over,
the "winner" had just paid triple what a similar Tatahouine was priced at
on
my website.
I admit that I had a good laugh on that!.

Yeah Mike, that's nice.
But more often than not, ebay tells me the item went for $1 over my max.
I don't particularly like the tactic of sniping,
but hey... if you can't beat 'em, join 'em!
