[QUOTE="-jeffB, post: 2428849, member: 27832"]"Moot". ;) And it's not, at least for me. I got my three listings up last night, with prices a bit above the going rate, so I don't expect them to sell immediately. If I find that the coupon conditions are to my liking, I can drop the price on one or more of my listings to a point where it will sell quickly. I have until June 12 to register the actual completed sale(s). So, for example, I've got 40 silver Kennedys at about $340. (Some rolls have gone for $170 each or higher lately, but most go lower.) If I found out that I could get a coupon good for up to $200 (20% off $1000) maximum value, I could afford to drop the BIN price to $240, where they'd sell instantly, or somewhere in between to sell them a bit less rapidly. If I found out that the coupon was limited to $100, I'd be less inclined to drop the price that far. If I found out that the coupon was limited to $50, I'd probably just let the listings ride as they are, and let them expire without selling. (Of course, if someone wanted to take that [I]luxuuuuurious[/I] cabinet of gold-plated quarters off my hands...) BTW, I'm trying to be vague enough here that no one will interpret this as an ad for the auctions. If I decide to advertise them here, I'll use the For Sale section as I'm supposed to. Mods, please let me know if I need to make my posts less specific.[/QUOTE]
