Very pretty. But I'll never understand why people bid so early on Ebay items. I've never found there to be any point, except to drive the price up.

Read my edit. I love it as much as the rest of you. It really is so beautiful.

I always set a max for myself when I bid so it doesn't matter if the bidding starts now or later
Me too.

Although, I'm glad Maria is going to get so much for her beautiful work.

Not me! I love KP, and the cover is beautiful, but I would never use it for fear of ruining it.

That is what I was just thinking -- there are so many days to go and bidding is only making it more and more expensive. Not that it isnt worth it just that the price becomes unreachable for most. It there is somthing I just LOVE on ebay I put it on my watch list and then bid with not much time left (like 2 min. and under). Might be sneaky but that is what auctions are all about. I have gotten a few things this way.

I think its an amazing cover but couldnt EVER imagine spending $100+ for a diapering item.

It is a beautiful cover, but I feel the same way. I think that if you really want something bad enough, you would wait until the end of the auction to bid. Especially for you mamas who are dying to have it but are dissappointed because it is going up so high. Why did you bid? It only drives the price up and makes it impossible for mamas tight on cash to get.
Although I have to say it is gorgeous and "Way to go Maria!!! You deserve every cent it goes for! You really are an artist". As for me, I am hoping that there will be one at the stocking this week.

I totally understand what you mamas are saying, and I agree that would normally be the strategy on eBay, if you were bidding on an everyday item. But for artwork like this (and it is awesome, Maria, btw), I almost find it to be a mark of respect for the bidding to be hot and heavy from the get-go. It shows just how much everyone loves her work. I mean, even if it were being watched by 400 people, it would be depressing if it sat low all week and only shot up at the end.

Well, that's my 2 cents anyway :P

I think it's more depressing that most Kiwi Pie customers could never afford it

I agree. It really is a piece of artwork. I have to think of it that way, or if I really wanted it, it would be depressing to watch. :LOL Not for Maria though! You are really loved Maria! Your covers are spectacular. I wish I had an IRL friend to call and tell about it, but they all think I am nuts!

I don't do ebay very often (mainly because it is too easy to get carried away..case in point ) but if I try to mark and item and bid at the last moment I always forget about it in the end. I just pick my limit and bid that amount usually. I know it shoots the price up, but that's what happens, yk. Anyway, this item would have gone for a huge price wether bidding started now or later. And it deserves to.
Beth*figuring out what she can sell to pay for this...*

I agree. I always put things on my watchlist and wait to bid towards the end. As a buyer I want to pay the lowest price I can for something. Now as a seller... bid that bad boy up!!!



That is an amazing piece. Very cute and detailed. Way to go Maria!!! Beautiful work.
