Hi,
I don't know if these badges are of interest to anyone? My son has been given them to sell to raise funds for an expedition to Nicaragua next year. They are listed in eBay - http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.ht.....mp;_ipg=50
Thank you
Regards
Maria Wass

Flooding the market with 10 of them seems to me a bad idea.

I wouldnt imagine there are too many of these around, likewise I wouldnt imagine there are many collectors of them around.

But if you had listed one then you could have offered the others to 2nd/3rd/4th highest bidder, after a potential bidding war or listed another after.

It's too late now sadly. All the collectors who are interested in these have seen that there are ten of them out there for sale, and so will spread themselves out across all the items rather than outbid each other and battle it out thinking there's only 1.

Might be worth taking down the items and starting again in 24 hours time, with just 1 auction but it's hard to say - the bidders probably won't fall for it and go crazy, because they know there'll either be a 2nd chance offer, or another one listed a week later. And another one. And another one etc

Nice looking badge though.

I think the seller did the sensible thing and pulled the original listings, the relisted them

one went for £74.99 buy it now. Good to see them getting sensible money
