The fact that you think it is worth $300 is not meaningful. The item is worth only what someone is willing to pay for it. And if you want full price, Ebay is not the right place to sell something.It is an auction site, which means people want a big bargain.

They are never going to pay even close to what you think it is worth.

It is an XBox 360 250 gb. So it is worth $300 and I want at least $200 for it. Buytime333 4 months ago .

Because that's what they want to pay for it. It doesn't matter what you think, if you posted it for auction and not "buy now", then people are going to bid low prices. Everyone's trying to save money nowadays.

Because a lot of the people on eBay are bottom feeders who want something for nothing. You could have used the "Buy It Now" feature and not had to go through the auction nonsense - then you would have been assured of getting the $300 (less eBay fees which would have knocked it down to about $260). However, the ones you need to keep an eye on are the Watchers.At least a couple of them will jump in when there's just a couple of minutes left and drive up the price.

I had that happen last week when a $15 item wound up going for $37 because they just had to have it! It sat there all week with one bid which knocked out the "Buy It Now" feature and I figured it would wind up going for 99 cents which was the minimum bid. The time to panic is when you have 0 watchers and 10 minutes left.

You're stuck now though. Once you have a bid, you can't go back and make changes or remove the listing. And, you can't add the "Buy In Now" feature once you have a bid.

If you believe in praying, if I were you, I'd start and pray that someone bids it up! But good grief, you've got 4 days - nothing to worry about yet.

You must be a new seller on eBay, 1) if you wanted a minimum of $200.00 you should have set a reserve price.2) Early bidding only drives the price up, experienced bidders wait until the last minutes in hopes of getting the lowest price3) ALWAYS check the competition before listing to see what others are paying for your item, then post accordingly. You can still cancel your auction, you can't end an auction within 12 hours of the ending time. This will take you to the eBay page that explains how to cancel your auction early.

And yes, you can end an auction even if it has bids on it. pages.ebay.com/help/sell/end_early.html html.

Because the most common E-bay strategy is to wait until the last minute and then try to slide your bid in just before it closes. If you wanted $200 for it; you should have posted a $200 reserve. Meanwhile; amazon has a BRAND NEW one available for $299.99; so a used one is going to be worth considerably less.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
