also, should we keep the bidder's ID private?

lil homo could have the bright idea of sending eBay messages to all the bidders on the auction.

That's not a bad idea at all.

How's this for the title:

Transformers G1 Insecticons set of 3 MISB
and the additional title: Kickback, Shrapnel, and Bombshell all 3 sealed

maybe "full set of 3".. or "complete set of 3"

i'm iffy on the private, only because i think that may scare off potential bidders..

what are your guys' thoughts on setting a reserve, and started the bid low? that will definitely get bid on, and if someone sees a bid, they may be more inclined to do so themselves, as well.. that will also keep the BIN up there until the reserve is met.

I like it ... that's pretty good. If you have any extra space, put in things like "NEW", "NIP", "SEALED"

Transformers G1 Insecticons set of 3 MISB NEW NIB
Kickback, Shrapnel, and Bombshell all 3 sealed


I'm trying to think of ways people search for sealed transformers.

MISB - mint in sealed box
MOSC - mint on sealed card
NIB - new in box
NIP - new in package

:thinking:

That's a good idea. The reserve could be $399 and the bidding could start at 99 cents.

I'm at a toss up on this. Me_Grimlock_Me_King!!! can easily start sending messages saying, "these guys only paid $100 for these ... don't get ripped off"

This seems like a good idea too.

Nope, he left me alone.

You know, we could all say blanky ripped us off because we could have bought these brand new in 1985 for $9.99 or so. :madr:
