I think it's interesting how craft and craft items and what people are "collecting" or looking for changes. I used to sell Longaberger baskets and would trade them now for stamps!! When I was a consultant, re-sale on some of my "speciality" basket (Easter, Christmas, etc.) was incredible. Now, some of my stamps sets are worth more!! Same with beanies, hallmark ornaments, etc. I guess it's all in the timing and where bidders are located (close to stores, reps, etc.).

Shill bidding is when someone who is really NOT a valid bidder puts in a bid just to keep the price up ---- so that the REAL bidders believe that someone else is interested in bidding on the same thing that they are bidding on. (Shills are usually related somehow to the seller)

i have about 100 longaberger and gerald henn basket filling up an oldstair case right now.
i did sell my collection of henn pull toys for over 1,000 dollars about 2 yrs ago.
What does shill bidding mean? Not an ebayer sorry if it is a duh ?.
my guess is when seller has a friend or even another ebay name to bid and have price go up. ! evil just plain evil.
i have a friend who calls it EVIL BAY
Hi,
I just wanted to clarify..because I have been posting ebay link..that anything I link to I do not bid on...unless I was showing you what I had just won
I won't link to anything I am bidding on cause I don't want anyone to bid against me. They still might but no use in sharing it.
I just was unsure about the talk of shill bids and such. If I link something I find on ebay it is just for someone elses interest. I love to search ebay and if I find something someone is looking for I link it. I hope that is okay?
Sorry for the hijack...just wanted to make sure no one thought I was linking to up bids on my items (don't sell) or anyone I know items

Don't worry! I did not get that impression at all! I don't ebay at all. But, it is nice to know what some of my sets are worth. I have been trying to get picks of all of my sets to turn into insurance.

I didn't get that impression, either. I think the topic of shill bids only came up because it contributes to the crazy pricing on some of these things.
Godspeed and the matching wheel Well Decorated are very hard to come by. I think a lot of the very popular mini sets are the coveted sets b/c they were only offered for a limited time and therefore are not as easy to come by.
Rare Sets - can we make a list?
