<p>[QUOTE="Joe2007, post: 1893319, member: 1262"]Some of local eBay sellers I know are trying to list as much as possible currently as they are of the belief that the new economic reality hasn't quite set in for many middle class buyers who are at home on the web and are bored. Many buyers are still willing to pay fairly strong prices for things according to these sellers so they are doing lots of buy-it-nows listings. One particular seller who was a VP in a big asset management firm before retiring says that these folks will see the light and will get much more tight with their money soon as more layoffs occur and we get a better picture of the impacts of COVID-19 in about a month. He says the time to sell antiques and collectables is NOW before the 21st century Great Depression sets in.</p><p><br /></p><p>Your thoughts?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
