I Think I linked enough photos in this auction
on: February 07, 2015, 01:27:39 AM
** my listing,  Just saying**

I posted around 100 photos in this listing   :rofl:

Detron's listing

on mobile ebay apps, you have to hit "item description" to see them all.

let me know if you think this is going to help in the sale
If I can help, let me know

I just mean that I will have lost faith in the buyers, if this lot goes for $130.00

I was just voicing my fear with the current bid.

BIG lots never go as well as smaller or better yet individual listings. Yes, they save time with shipping just one package out. But you'd get much better pricing for 2-3 pieces. Hope you get a good price for them this way too though.

Hi Det
Saw this in another link from another thread.

To answer your question - Very thorough - But too many pictures to scroll through for me.
However for a buyer who really wants to know what he is buying (and who wouldn't) it is great to get that much info.

My three points are:
  • Why are you selling all those lovely tools?  :( Tempted to say shame on you !! ;) Someone is going to be very lucky
  • If you had allowed international bidding - I know you would have had two bidders from MTo down under!!
  • The current price is crazy low - But I agree with Aloha - A lot of action in the last hour and even more in the last minute  :o I reckon it will at least double current price which is $157 right now

Couldn't afford the whole bunch right now anyway, but +1 on the international shipping thing.

By selling them one by one you'd get 3 times the price.. on either ebay or the forum... just the spirit, swisstool and CT 34 would bring more than 150 USD... with the Hunter and Wenger pushing another 100...

Price darn near doubled.  What I've noticed from some bidders is they've become so "invested" they wont let themselves be out bid so you should be good.  I also think selling here and in smaller lots would have made you more money. 

I feel you will do alright since this is going on over the weekend.  Lots of time left for and lots of last 10 sec activity to be seen.

also when I sell here I am inclined to go cheap to help others out.  that is not a bad thing,  but I cannot find a balance between fair and "too cheap"

I can totally understand that.  I see this lot growing as it's done so far.  I know I like to wait to swoop in last 10 or 3 seconds left  :D.  Some one is already figuring what they want and whats going back up for sale to recoup their spending.  Good luck buddy.

Price is going up  :D - Looking forward to seeing the result - Still expecting lots of action!!  :woohoo:

However I would still have gone for smaller lots on ebay.
Defintely with the larger more expensive items as singles (Swissstools, Champ, Cyber, Old Wenger etc)
People are much more inclinded to be wanting an item of two as opposed to 20 or so
And also much more inclined to spend less money than more
I would say this lot is worth easily upwards of $4-500 (especially non US where multis are so expensive) - But not everyone has that to spare.

Anyway Good Luck D - Someone is going to get very lucky

I would much rather ship one package than 20. If it gets too bad you can always pull the auction before it ends.

agreed,  I think the winner got a GREAT deal,  but at this price I do not feel bad about letting them go.  at $130, or so, I would have panicked.

I wonder was it one of us?  It was a very good deal for the winner and I wouldn't be surpised to see some of it relisted and resold.


So Detron what tools did you decided to keep out of all you had?

I am pleased with what I still have, and may get more stuff one day, or I might part with some of the things I have.

I came here to MTO to research a MT,  and went crazy   :facepalm:

 :D  Yeah for sure.  I haven't been of fleabay in a while which helps.  I've lost one to many auctions and figured I give it a rest for a bit.  I still find some random good buy at the flea market which makes MT and SAK hunting fun.

Funny thing is I'm still pretty much using the same tools I always have.
