Buyers weren't biting tonight!

I had 32 auctions listed that closed tonight, and made exactly FOUR sales! Youch!
Anyway, 10 new auctions listed here tonight, plus a BUNCH of relists.
It's been a very expensive summer, so any bids you might make would be MUCH appreciated!
thanks for looking, at least!

I sell mostly books on eBay. Rarely list much in the summer, a waste of time.

I learned my lesson on 99 cent bids a long time ago! Never price something for less than you are willing to part with it for! Sorry you got burned, man.

Lewis, I think that eBay has reached it's new low. The piles of crap that are on there are not hardly even worth wading through to find the gems anymore. They've permitted anything and everything to be listed as artifacts, which has hurt the better sellers like you. There are so many fake relics, many with "papers", that the auction house has become a flea market. Excepting that eBay collectors are so hungry for good stuff so they'll pay much more than true value if two or more bidders think it might be ancient. There are many sellers with 100% good feedback that continue to shovel out the crap, and it compounds even more as new buyers get sucked in. Plus, the lovely state of the economy has made most everything a buyers' market- except for the top stuff, good and bad.
I hope that you have better luck on this batch, you'll need it!
