It's tough to come to any conclusion from looking at eBay listings. Especially when many of the listings are from possible scammers.

Sort by "most bids" and set the minimum value to $100. Only a few have even a single bid, with just a couple having multiple bids. Also, the most expensive single-bid items all have sellers with no feedback. The market price is one that buyers are willing to pay, not just one sellers are willing to list.

You should probably call your mom anyway though. I'm sure she'd appreciate the chance to talk to you.

This is great advice, thanks for the reminder :)

Does eBay still let you search closed listings if you're logged in?
