Many times I seen something that I was interested in but the starting bid 
was more than I (or anyone else) was interested in paying so the auction 
ends with no bids. Sometimes the seller re-lists with a lower starting 
price, but still too much for anyone.

I have then contacted the seller directly and offered exactly what I am 
willing to pay and many times they sell to me at that price. I guess they 
figure it beats waiting it out again for nothing. And selling direct there 
are no eBay fees.
