you need to learn how to use ebay. Your opening bid is your selling price. Lower it by half at least, then place a reserve value. Second time i've told you this.

That won't work, they won't buy once they see the real price. Its also worth 1,100.00 new so i'm good.

they never see the reserve price. now they assume people will bid and the price will go up as auctions do.

And because you eliminate any low bidders that would never exceed the selling threshold, you lose all their bids which makes your item seem valuable luring in the real buyers.

If you want to sell it for 600. Do a buy it now. If you want to do an auction and sell minimum 600, set the opening at 300. People can state their maximum price so there is no more risk to you, people will actually bid and if they set their max to 500, then realize the other unit they were looking at was sold, they might just click the buy it now at 600. The problem with 600 opening bid and no buy it now is people will assume you have no idea what it is worth and are looking for 800. They just won't bother.

If this isn't evident, i'm not really sure what to say. Maybe study game theory or play a strategy game or something. Not understanding how people operate is a pretty big disadvantage.

Ohh i understand now. I will do this on the next item i sell. Thanks

Edit: holy , it cost 15 bucks for a reserve price on the pioneer nexus.

where are you located ? ah miami. How much would you sell it to me ? And would you rip me off if i sent a certified check. Ebay sucks for selling. The seller has the most risk. I got burned once for 2000$. GUy just claimed he didn't get it. Had tracking but lowered the value so taxes would be reasonable. I even talked to the guy on the phone before hand. I got my money but then paypal claimed i owed them the total sale and out of principle i just never paid them. But ya, ebay sucks.

paypal only, and i know for fact you hate paypal :p
Looney4Clooney
why would you turn down a certified check.

And it annoys me that i said everything last time and you didn't follow a single thing. Your add needs to be more personal. Right now, you sound like a company. People expect better deals from companies. Get rid of that form template. Make it sound like you loved this thing like your kid. Posting specs doesn't sell stuff. People will not just stumble on it. They are looking for it. So explain what it is in a personal way, why you are selling it , how great of condition it is , and how it is still under warranty.
