Personally that's why I started taking bids. This approach isn't all that great with items that aren't 1) in high demand; or 2) have a wide price range; or 3) items that are dropping in price rapidly (long sales).

Save for those three things, it really is a good way to maximize the profit on a sale. For simplicity sake I went back to just quoting the "buyout" and making note of any other offers.

If the buyouts are set properly (i.e. the max an item will sell for), then it's a pretty good way to sell things... its just... slow. I came up with a couple tweaks to my personal selling system and i'll probably be giving them a try here soon. Namely, much more rapid pace timers on my auctions... probably around 30 mins to an hour.
