starting it low gets more bids.
Usually most of the bids come in the last few seconds as people try to snipe it.
Might be worth getting a mate to bid on it to bump the price up a bit.

search for xj600... first one on the list, to be fair I'm expecting there to be a bidding frenzy as there are 63 people watching it.

When you are selling something expensive like a motorcycle, you should always list it on Ebay at no less than the price you are willing to sell it for.

I don't know how many watchers there are on the auction but there have been four bids. What usually happens is that there is a flurry of final bids during the last 15 minutes.

You should have set the auction to end at a different time though; think how many people will be at work at 5pm.

@Polarbear: My tattooist was the fuck that told me about the bike in the first place, he would have bought it himself but he had 4 bikes already and his wife said he had to do the house first... other than that he really wanted the bike.

@Janner_10: I'll be sure to check the muff on the next thing I ride

@Ninja_butler: I did list it at the minimum price I would sell it for, there are 64 people watching it, and think how many people will probably have a mysterious illness about lunch time today Twisted Evil

@C_dug: The world might have ended by Sunday 10pm, and I still stick by my if anyone wants the bike then they will need to find a way to get a bid in.

when i was selling the bandit it had 164 watchers Shocked . but no one bid Sad so don't let your hopes escalate to high on the watch count.

Good luck with the sale tho, hope you get a savvy buyer and not some time wasting sack licker.

I did second time round Thumbs Up .
