Should I put it up at -x to tempt "real people"?
Or should I put it up at par to nab autobid?

How horrific is it, and how desperate are you to get shot?

Fifty quid of 7058, which I was stupid / greedy enough to buy at a discount back in July after the delayed June payment (I have become a little wiser since). The August 19th comment has me running for the hills.

£50's going to be a bit chunky for Autobodge.
I'd chuck it up at a discount, and increase the discount every day until a bot nabs it.

Besides which, poisoning a bot with it is more socially acceptable (IMO) than lumbering some poor granny who thinks autobid/buy is working in her favour and not yours. Neither bots not autobid can read comments tabs worth a damn IME, so either way will work.

Surely if a deep enough discount is offered to snare a bot, the bot will likely in any case immediately relist at par and granny gets it either way

Cost me a 2% discount to get shot of it but I feel better for it. Not that fifty quid is going to make any difference to my life but I feel that avoiding losses is as, if not more important than, earning interest / making gains.
The old picking pennies up on a rail track.....

So who was the lucky recipient? (with selected Asterix, obviously)?
