>(until
>>Sunday at 5 PM CST at this link *

>>But this is *ONE *major auction that wasn't "For Millionaires Only"!
>In

>>they sold, and they don't mention in any way the hundreds of items
>that
>>failed to meet their lofty "reserve prices" (often set at high
>retail or
>>above). In many of those auctions you either pay high retail or you
>don't
>>buy (and in many cases, the high bidder is actually the only real
>person
>>who was bidding).
>>
>> But all of these auctions had *NO *reserves at all, and while
>every
>>single items sold, many sold for below bargain basement prices! The
>>auctions included 85 items that sold for just *FIVE DOLLARS* (or
>under),
>>and a staggering 518 items that sold for* FOURTEEN DOLLARS* and
>under
>>(remember that our leading competitor has *NEVER* auctioned even one
>item
>>for under $15, thanks to their $14 minimum buyers premiums).
>>
>> There were a total of 902 items that sold for under *TWENTY
>>DOLLARS*(nearly half of the total items!) and
>>*EVERY* one of the more than 500 different buyers receive a great
>>full-color t-shirt (that costs us $9 to $11 at wholesale), even
>those who
>>just purchased one inexpensive item.
>>
>> And over 130 of those 500 buyers purchased five or more items
>(and
>>were in this club) and they also receive the many special added
>bonuses we
>>offered (in all we gave away well over 2,000 bonus items) and the
>cost to
>>us of all these promotions was well in excess of $10,000, which
>means we
>>had lots and lots of happy buyers!
>>
>> And we also had lots of happy consignors, because many of the
>items
>>sold for excellent prices (no doubt helped both by the many bonus
>offers,
>>and the lack of outrageous buyers premiums!).
