ebay selling strategies
all things being equal, and assuming a desirable product, does the guy who opens a record at 4.99 get the same in the end as the guy who opens it at 19.99?

Often the guy who opens at $4.99 gets more than the seller who opens for $19.99. Depends on the object though.

Good pictures, accurate descriptions, careful timing (remembering different collectors in different time zones) sound clips (unless the records awful) and above all, a good reputation will make the diference in price.
Starting low is cheaper in fees.
Check what the record is really worth to ebayers by searching it in advance search with option 'completed items only' ticked.
Sometimes you'll get a huge price fro something unexpected.
Other times you'll struggle to sell quality - that's ebay.
I couldn't sell a mint copy of 'Girl I love You' by Johnnie Clark on Justice. And I couldn't sell a great copy of 'Gun Court Dub' on Love - both superb albums that I happen to have duplicates of. Yet I got great prices on some stuff I really didn't rate at all. Odd.
