I guess we both figured it wasn&#039;t worth fiddling with auction cancellation for a buck; it&#039;s not like he would&#039;ve gotten much more than $1.50 in any case. I guess your question was more about auctions than BIN mistakes, though.</p><p><br /></p><p>In general, it&#039;s unusual for things to go below FV, but it does happen. Things certainly go for less than FV before shipping -- in particular, I know I&#039;ve seen some &quot;fancy serial&quot; $20 bills that went for something like $15 + $5 shipping. If you count both shipping and eBay/PayPal fees, I&#039;ve seen <i>lots</i> of auctions where the seller would&#039;ve been further ahead to just cash stuff in at the bank, or even CoinStar.</p><p><br /></p><p>Compare to old uncanceled postage stamps, which I <i>regularly</i> see offered at coin shows for around 20% below FV. If I used stamps more often, I&#039;d be all over that.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
