Admin! What would be kind of fun and the buyers should have fun with it is to do a 1cent auction category!
Everything starts at 1 cent with No Buy It Now but can have a reserve price on it! Call it something like (1 penny Auctions) At least a buyer would have fun bidding and bidding! What do you thing?

We think it might bring people to the site more often to see there bid and then they might look at other items too and maybey we all can snag a sale here and there!

You know what I think, MJ...?? If we could only get folks back into the idea of competitive bidding
that you used to really see online..it would be so much better.That gives more of the spirit of
a 'live auction' in my opinion..you notice not as much of that anymore?(ANYWHERE)
It is what made it fun when I used to (be able to) bid a lot!! :D

Threw the years i have tried to do that on some of our auctions like starting a $50.00 item at $4.99 and no bids! We are also Live Auctioneers and we have done differant things like this at live auctions like auction backwards then up! The buyers rally get a kick out of that and pay more attention to other items it seem like! If a crowd is looking like they are getting board or visting with that neighbor to much we did a deal like the penny deal and boy we were tired after that one but the crowd sure woke up and started biiding on more items! Just figured i'd throw that penny auction out there to admin and see as i think that would wake up alot of biiders! We'll time to get off this as it is 11 pm here!

Good Night

This is definitely a possibility. We would want to ensure it would get enough use though. I have added a poll to this thread, so we will let our members decide. If you are a seller and would use this category, please choose yes (otherwise choose no). If you are a buyer and would like to shop from such a category, please choose yes (otherwise choose no).
