I love the Combine feature. Last night more then half of my auctions ended with more then one item to the same person. BTW, last night I had 65 item close, 65 items sold... Love this penny for the first bid. I got killed on one item in the 2 weeks I've done penny starts. I've gotted higher than expected on about half of the items, including a few $10 items that went for $60 - $80 each.

So when you start for a penny, do you have a reserve? Or do you take the best bid you get regardless of what it sells for?

I start at $.01 with no reserve (no point in starting at a penny if you have a reserve). The lowest I have gotten in about 100 auctions is $3.25. Average is about $7 when I usually average about $6...
It has helped a lot, I now have about 20 people who search up my auctions every monday to see what I have up for a penny. They see what I have, and they bid. It gives me more bidding eyeballs...

BTW, It took other kinds of balls besides Eyeballs the first time, but if you are selling a collectable that is moving, you will get your bids.

I'm not upset about the penny, I marked up the postage to cover it. But Still in all!
Now, item's I started at .50 went much higer than I thought they would. I guess .50 bring's in a much more higher grade of bidder's! LOL!
