[QUOTE="GoldFinger1969, post: 8151666, member: 73489"]Just wondering if some of you who have sold on Ebay can tell me why folks would continue to list/relist stuff at 2-4x the most recent sales price ? I mean...[I]are they hoping that a truly dumb buyer stumbles on to their merchandise ? [/I] I get that being 25-50% over market maybe the price moves in your direction and there isn't anybody else selling one of yours so you get lucky....but with continued availability of a non-rare (esp. modern coins)....[I][B]what's the gameplan on being 100-300% over the real market and recent sales prices ? [/B][/I] As an example, a commemorative coin that has sold for $100 give or take $20 and I see a few people "asking" $350 and up.[/QUOTE]
