 | Re: $13 Mint Condition Yamaha Picc But i think it is just a bad stradegy at selling his picc and not a scam, as he has a perfect 100% positive feedback and an ebay score of over 1300. I think im going to wait until literally like 5 minutes before it ends and bid over the previous bidder. |

| Re: $13 Mint Condition Yamaha Picc Looks like the seller wants someone to go for the Buy it Now price.

| Re: $13 Mint Condition Yamaha Picc Ebay is all about mind games, the more insulting to the seller the better. I was on "eButt" for 10 years, I know what I'm talking about, feedback over 7000. If you put a reserve, but start it at like 1 cent or something, it gets more people interested. More people have it bookmarked, making a much more profitable snipefest at the end. If someone doesn't grab the reserve, there's a fair chance it will shoot past the reserve amount. It could even go for more than a new one goes for now, because "the old ones are better" or something.

| Re: $13 Mint Condition Yamaha Picc I have started instruments at 99p with a higher reserve as it reduces the final value fee you have to pay ebay and it gets more people bidding. I saw someone do this with a ganter rotary recently.
