<p>[QUOTE=&quot;-jeffB, post: 1082313, member: 27832&quot;]Not to steal GDJMSP&#039;s thunder, but I think I can answer that one.</p><p><br /></p><p>When you&#039;re bidding on something on eBay, you&#039;re counting on the seller to describe it accurately, then to deliver as promised. The Buyer Protection policy provides some additional insurance, but people still perceive more risk in dealing with someone who doesn&#039;t have a feedback track record. They weigh this risk when making a bid. So, if you&#039;ve got no feedback, fewer people will bid on your auction, and those who do bid are likely to bid lower.</p><p><br /></p><p>One way to address this, if you&#039;re willing to spend the time, would be to auction off one of the tubes of dollars one coin at a time. You&#039;ll pay proportionately more in fees for these smaller auctions, but (assuming your buyers aren&#039;t flaky) you&#039;ll accumulate feedback more quickly. If I saw that someone was new to eBay, but had sold five or ten Morgans with good feedback, I&#039;d have less hesitation about buying a roll of them.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
