The uniform lot in the left hand navigation is almost at $1,000 and still has more than a day before it finishes. It's always nice to see nearly complete groupings on eBay and they demand a high price!
Auctions that also include a buy-it-now option are interesting. It can work as a way for the seller to stake claim to the value he wants out of a listing while letting the bidding process play out. Check out the German knife/sword below and you can see this strategy in action.
The Italian officers fighting knife below is ending very soon. I always try and include lots of pointy auctions as I like to jokingly call them because I know how many collectors like blades.
Who knew that dog tags were so sought after? The auction pictured bottom right is going for over $200 in a competitive auction - go figure!
