<p>[QUOTE="Joan, post: 2888673, member: 5398"]I agree, it is a tricky decision to make. With this second group of paper, I'm thinking I may start the auction at $95-$100, or list the sheets separately or in pairs. However, the other group had sheets with more art deco-ish background patterns; one sheet had Santa's, one snowmen, and one with wire fox terriers (like Asta in the 30's 40's Thin Man movies). This group has one sheet with Scottie dogs, but the other figural designs are more Victorian-like with carolers and horse/carriage/sleigh images. The rest of the sheets have the typical bells, candles, holly leaves, ponsettias, and stripes. There are a couple sheets with some damage, whereas the other group didn't include any damaged sheets. </p><p><br /></p><p>When I made the decision to add the $100 BIN, there were several views, but no watchers, and by the time I revised the listing and the buyer bought (an hour later), there were 12 views and still no watchers.</p><p><br /></p><p>I'm also wondering whether I should contact the buyer and let her know that I have more paper that I will be listing and if she asks for photos, see what her reaction is before deciding what to do. But then, if she's interested and makes a decent offer, it would be kind of sleazy of me to decline it and then do an auction starting at the amount she offered.....I'm probably over thinking this.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
