On the top right of the page there is a link that says "Advanced"

This will take you to a long list of advanced search options, one of which is number of bids. Just set the minimum at 1 and save.

I did not know that. Dumb and dumber just got smarter.

Thanks.

Auctions with high starting bids that never get bid on. They run the length of the auction with no bids, the seller then starts the process over again with the same high starting bid, repeat, repeat, repeat.

I use the 'advanced settings' all the time.
I also type in -reprint in the search, so it basically gets rid of half the $%^ I am not looking for.
It also doesn't hurt to put a minimum bid range, sometime a maximum is used to exclude those musueum piece as well.
BTW..for those unable to see the best offer accepted--I use www.watchcount.com

I use to remove "reprint" from my searches, but then I started noticing auction listings with "not a reprint" that would sell at good deals so I stopped that practice.

I stopped looking at BIN's about 2 years. I only look at auctions with more than 3-5 bids. BIN's, IMO, are a complete waste of time vs. effort. Sure, I may miss out on the .003 percent of BIN's that are a bargin, but I enjoy the hobby so much more just having my searches look at real auctions.

Most BIN sellers are trollers looking for whales or folks that have no clue. Like they say on Wall Street; there's an endless line of bidiots.

As a seller who uses BIN's almost exclusively and makes a living doing so with customers such as Leon Luckey and Ste.ve Na.polit.ano, you may want to rethink this a little. My store's a little sparse right now, but over the next few weeks it will be massively reloaded.

IMHO, Ebay has gotten pretty bad. I start items via auction at the bare minimum I will accept, and the bids just aren't there like they used to be in the past. Sometimes I start a card at a penny, and I don't want to do free shipping, because I am worried that the card will end at the penny, and it will cost me money to sell items on Ebay.
