As all the people and businesses who did not participate in FLD begin listing items, I wonder how high the totals will go?

Now the few buyers have to wade through 3 times as much garbage to find a good item. The Christmas FLD has been good for me in the past, but I think this one is going to be bad.

I agree! This time I don't think it is going to be worth the trouble.
I had 500 ads made up a week ago just waiting for the FLD. On Christmas Eve I gave up and listed 100 of them...same type items, same quality, etc.
Of those first 100 I had bids within 2 hours on 18 of them and now have 26 bids on them.
Of the other 400 items (all are postcards but the scenes are similar many RP's etc) I have bids on 14 of them.
It would appear I would have been much better off without the FLD and just listed everything while the auction count was down to 5 million.
As far as my lobby cards go, I have boxed them up. I was getting $9.95 and up for 1 and now there are hundreds of listings for under a dollar. I'll just wait it out! One business came up with thousands of them and started listing sets for $9.95 three months ago. Now they are listing 10 sets for that.
