Ebay relisting suggestion for overpriced BIN cards

Hey, angrybitterguy14, why don't you do us a favor and post your ebay seller name here, so every single one of us can just avoid ever having to deal with you, okay?

I don't have to because I am not taking shots at anyone here.

The model may or not make sense based on whether the seller knows what he's doing. For example, for over two years I was watching a card that was ridiculously overpriced at BIN $1,600. I made a couple of offers for amounts that NO ONE else would ever pay. Both were declined without even a counteroffer. Every month, the card would go unsold and I would watch it. Finally, another of the same exact card went up for auction and I won the auction at about $550, which was hundreds less than what I had previously offered. I continued to watch the card until I noticed it was finally put up for auction, where it fetched far less than what I paid for it. I still scratch my head on what the seller was thinking.

Now I am going through the same process with another card where it is listed for $500 but is worth $100 TOPS if I am willing to overpay for it. I guarantee, it will end the same way as the prior example.

What good is a BIN that doesn't result in a sale?

Yes. I'm asking why, if it doesn't result in a sale.

So you lower the BIN a little like 5%.

The discussion is about people who don�t lower them and keep renewing the item at the same price.

Yes, and what you "Totally disagree" with earlier was the OPs original suggestion to lower the BIN if it doesn't sell. Now you're suggesting the same thing.

But you have expressed an opinion of Levi, and by the rules your name (not your ebay handle) should be in your post.
