The is one guy "Sly?" who I swear has been tring to sell the same overpriced doubles since I started looking at gun auctions many years ago.
I agree with the above sentiments and have also sold lots of items on Ebay and elsewhere with a starting bid of 99 cents.
I'd like to see these online gun auction adopt the same policy that Barrett Jackson, the classic car sellers, did a few years ago. The took the minimun bids and reserves off all their auctions and you can start the bidding a 1.00 on a $1,000,000 car. If the car ends up at $800,000 that's what it sells for. These moves IMO have taken a lot of the game playing out of this auction that used to occur all the time.
Maybe Dave will decide to start up an auction here with no reserves and a 1.00 starting price. Sure there would be an occasional bargian but I'll bet most of the guns would bring true value.
