Default FA: Nice Circ 1895O Morgan Dollar Closing Tonight

NICE CIRCULATED 1895O SILVER DOLLAR RARE DATE
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=3050962424

Somebody's not paying tension. Heck, I paid more than the current bid, and
felt I stole this one.

Let's see some serious bidding, OK?

I suggest everyone wait for about 8 hours just to give Big Freddy the
willies.

Hope you enjoy fingernails Fred. :-)

Well, I went and bumped the current bid a little, then read this post.
BTW, Fred, in my auctions the last few months, it seems that snipe bidding
is stronger and more popular than ever. In the past, there were auctions
that were selling way to cheap and Iwas hopeful, even expectant, of some
decent late bidding, only to be disappointed. More recently, I have become
so accustomed to strong, late bidding, that I have quit sweating the
auctions at all. I've also had a few auctions where the bidding reached my
minimum expectations just a few hours into the auction. When selling, I
like those auctions the best. Bill ( I did not bid out of concern for
Fred's fingernails.)

I have noticed the same thing. People
that are interested in something don't
feel compelled to bid right away anymore
it seems. They just set their snipe programs to kick in near the end of the
auction and most of the time an item will bring what it is worth.

I'm not so sure it's snipe bidding but the shear volume of coins being
offered. At the moment there are 9194 Morgans listed. A search for 1895-O
shows 32 listings. There are so many available there is not a need to bid
early. A Sunday night a few weeks ago when I was able to get to the
computer, there were 26 pages when clicking on going, going, gone. That's
about 1300 Morgan dollars closing within a 5 hour window. That's over 4 per
minute closing, alot of great buys. Now only if I hd some extra money.

As DQ Bill suggested, the only number that counts is the one at the end.
This didn't go for quite what I hoped, but it's my own fault. I didn't
realize until comparing it to similar coins that no one searches for 1895O,
but for 1895-O or 1895 O. I'm guessing that was a $50-75 mistake. Yeah, I
know that sounds like a lot, but I've grown accustomed to getting
ridiculously above-market prices in exchange for straightforward
presentation and nice images. I mean really, have you looked at how lousy
some people's coin images are?
