But that's how real auction houses work, if they have a reserve set then the same thing happens, hence why ebay charge so much for this.

In other words if you put say £500 reserve on and the general opinion is that it's only worth £300 and bids are received up to that. If one MUG comes along trying to be smart and puts a bid or a swipe on for £550. Ebay will sell it to him for £500 (possibly £501?) even though non of the other bidders thought it was worth that
I haven't sold anything on ebay for about 2 years, and even then I only sold a few items, so I've lost touch with the prices and how things work. I've just noticed that some things have gone a bit dodgy.

chimney, one with it in the centre of the frame, one LHS
and one RHS and there isn't much difference, which indicates
that it is an excellent lens. The Jpg AWB colours were
again spot on.
Also tried infinity focus on a house about 150m away.
One shot AF and one shot visually in the viewfinder.
The AF shot was slightly better, although I should have
done about 4 shots each for a more accurate result.
There's only the focus beyond infinity problem that
causes me any concern about this lens. I suppose
I'll have to use it AF which I rarely do with any
lens.

I never understood why Bernard Wrigley never made
it nationally. His local concerts still sell out
and I first saw him 35 years ago at the same time
and in the same clubs as Jasper Carrot.
