Jay, speaking- “Yeah, auctions just don’t really work for us, so we don’t do them.”
Me, thinking- “But I just sold this amazing auction lot TWO DAYS AGO for WAY more than I would have put them up as BIN!”
Jay- “I mean, people come on the forums and tell us about this time they sold this ONE thing and think we’re going to be able to replicate it always, and that’s just not the case”
Me- “Yeah, I guess… but this ONE auction did awesome! It was a set of antique Japanese rice bowls that my grandmother bought when her family was stationed in the pacific, and I had NO IDEA how much they’d sell for, so I auctioned them and they brought $150! I probably would have listed them for $45 or something.”
Jay- “Sure, it works for certain things, like weird asian pottery, because that stuff sells like crazy.”
Me- … Well played, Jay, well played.
