<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Coinbrag, post: 763266, member: 14974&quot;]I&#039;ve been a PowerSeller on eBay for a couple of years so let me see if I can take a crack at the $2+3 vs $6+4 prices.</p><p><br /></p><p>First as others have pointed out feedback can play a part as can the quality of the pictures and even the time of day that the items are ending.&nbsp; There are also time durations.&nbsp; Then there&#039;s eBay&#039;s &quot;Best Match&quot; search which can really screw up the order that items are shown.&nbsp; Being a Top Rated seller helps but is no guarantee you&#039;ll have visibility.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ve sold thousands of items on eBay and sometimes price is not everything.&nbsp; I had an item sit on eBay in the $3 price range for about 2 years.&nbsp; One day I jacked it to $7 and 2 months later it sold.&nbsp; Now did someone assume that at $3 my item was not legit or of low quality?&nbsp; Maybe.&nbsp; Or maybe it was just an item with a very small number of people interested in it, and I just had to way 2 years and 2 months for him to come along and buy it.&nbsp; I&#039;ve had $80 items I have put on sale for $64 for two weeks.&nbsp; Then 2 days after the sale ends I&#039;ve had it sell for $80.&nbsp; So again, it was a matter of having buyers at the right place and the right time.</p><p><br /></p><p>For auctions I&#039;ve sold identical items and watched the same items being bid up to double what I was hoping it would end at, while the other sold at less than half my hopeful price.&nbsp; Same seller, same description, same picture...just somehow different.&nbsp; The bidding war factor can play a part for sure.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
