   I suspect that we are at cross purposes rather than in disagreement. Note,   
   please, I am writing entirely and only for myself, and I have both bought   
   (95%) and sold (5%) on eBay.   
      
   The venue is entirely about expectations. if the seller has high expectations   
   the seller had better set a reserve along those lines. If the seller is   
   sufficiently savvy to research the market ahead of posting, that process is   
   not difficult. If the seller    
   is looking for the "Bigger Fool" - that is a crap-shoot, and the seller gets   
   exactly what is deserved.    
      
   eBay puts buyers together with sellers with fixed rules. Sure, they favor the   
   buyer - that is what keeps them coming back. And, again, a savvy seller will   
   know all this and list/price accordingly.   
      
   Generally, when I sell on eBay it is stuff that is difficult to transport, or   
   stuff I just want rid-of. $1.00 + shipping, no problem!
