john/z28jdI just read the rules for the first time and it sounds like they dont have to sell it if no offers dont meet their minimum they want.Its good for the seller i guess because if you get an offer you like right away you can just end the auction.I dont see how it could hurt placing a best offer bid on the card,maybe if no one else does youd get it cheap because the seller figured it didnt have interest.
This isnt like the pre-approved list scam in that with this one you find out if your bid was accepted only by the auction ending
You might see someone list a $500 card with a buy it now price over $1000 just so they see what kind of offers you get.That way if they get a high bid they might decide they want to sell a card theyd normally keep(or be mad they sold for less on ebay)
