Walt...glad you responded..either someone will get one very cheap and make a good deal if he or she is lucky, good for the collector and a lesson for the seller, and on the other one there will be few bids as there is no incentive to bid on an item priced at market value if you cannot see the item. This only remains fun as long as we have good intentions. I love finding a bargain on eBay and I love getting a good price for an item I list, but I want to see what is being offered and have a chance to communicate with the seller. If he or she will not respond, they lose a bid, and I have been known to bid pretty high for something I want, as we all have.....Peter
