I envy you sellers who start at one penny or one dollar. I for one don't have that kind of luck. If I start an auction at one penny - that is about what I sell it for. I have better luck if I just put a price on it. I tried to one dollar everything and let them go - I didn't sell one item. The next week I put the regular price on them - I sold almost all of them. Can't figure! PatR
Highest feedback on eBay. I have your luck and never do well starting things at a super low price. The number of bids on online auctions has dipped a lot in the last few years so the gamble is greater and greater.

I remember when Marie first started on eBay. She would send the CD to anyone with a 10 or higher feedback rating without waiting for payment. She must have lost a lot of money on "lost" payments and bookkeeping.

Well, my sales may not be as plentiful every week as the one cent guys, but I do have sales and I do make a little profit - enough to pay my listing fees, etc. Plus I have buyers who come back. So that has to say something.PatR
