Claude, and Mopo,
Timing is everything and Michael
(as do others) posted a 3 hour countdown. This actually works well for me
as I rarely place bids with 5 or 6 days out and I never know what clients
needs are from one day to the next. Well, I logged onto
the computer with about 2 hours left in his auction after reading his
posting. So I checked it out and low I found three great sci-fi posters
all at that time showing $150 - $170 in bid totals that I
could certainly have used and placed bids of $135 - $175 more than were
showing knowing I couldn't stick around when they closed for a snipe, and I was
comfortable with where the net totals would be if I won them at max
bid.
I LOST all three........one only
by two dollars the others by at least a hundred more. I can't
state categorically that Michael's admirable escalation of
prices overall were due to the three hours left posting.........but I CAN
say that was the case for three of them.
MOPO is here to educate, notify of
skank ebayers, talk film posters, and hopefully stimulate poster sales.
Success comes in all manner of utilization. Spurring impromptu bidding was
Michael's strategy and hell he got three from me. Who knows, he
could have had an even cheaper Charlie Chan In Honolulu!!! It would have
only taken a second to click and check.
Respectfully
