I just bought two "envelopes" in an eBay mystery auction. I only paid a little bit for them and hey what the heck.. if I don't win at least I got a cheap thrill. Anyway, while anticipating what's in my envelope, I decided to make a mystery auction for myself. I am kind of excited to see how it goes. I was really bored and decided to give it a go. It's kind of fun with the anticipation building up for me as a buyer to buy some, I wondered what it's like as a seller. I hope it all works out. But yeah, have any of you bought something from a mystery auction before? Here's the item number to the one I'm hosting: 120192842410
It's a very interesting marketing tactic. I've seen a couple mystery auction sellers do very well. Just two envelopes....I wonder what could be inside? Cash? Tickets to something? Nothing but Air?
I bought a bag actually few years ago for 99 cents and deliver was $5 and it was an Ipod the seller sold some 1k bags 2 of them were ipods and everything else was well basically things that were worth 99 cents. Since then bought a few small mystery packages but nothing much in them. Still have the ipod except its very very scratched up.
Yeah, I ended up getting something cool, too. I just the email. I spent .99 and got $25, so I guess that means I won!
