Which do you prefer

I think any kind of auction will give more people a chance at given materials, a specific price limits the chance for everyone to buy.

I can see the merits of both, which is why I posted the poll.  

My personal preference is BIN (buy it now) at the clearly stated price with clearly stated freight terms. What seems to be a very popular method here is to list multiple boxes in the same post and let folks claim the box they want. If a box goes unsold the folks are letting you know they don't see the value in it.

At the end of the day it's your choice based on an individual product and your assessment of how much you think the product is worth. I personally tend to pass on auctions because I know it's going to quickly pass where I feel like participating. At the same time - as noted above charity auctions are an entirely different animal.


Edited to add: Yeah, I can't really vote in the poll because either BIN scenario, mixed or individual, is valid.
