i never put cards out with a low starting price to create bidding interest for just this reason. never seems to work.
Yup, it used to be that bidding on those super low opening price auctions would just be the first step in bidding up to near the average, but they are now turning into deals with fewer bidders going after them. And then there's also the scarcity issue that Orcin saw where you can command a premium for the lone listings of some cards. Both sides of the supply and demand decrease going on at once.
