I'll chime in and say a reduction once per day is probably enough.  The increment is entirely up to the seller but should probably be disclosed at the beginning of the auction.

Hi Jeff,
I did not mean to attribute the invention of the reverse auction concept to you, but I think your use of it here is good - thanks for the idea.
I would like to support this forum, so I will be holding my reverse auction here too.
Announcement will follow shortly.

PS. robbiegal.  Nibbles is welcome to do support of my revese auction too  :)

Oh dear Trout!
I think your nibbles might be trying to scare off competitors!!

robbiegal

ha ha
I rather like Trouts' nibbles there!!

Nibbles will cheerfully come along for the ride
I make make a smaller poster for the auctions
'Bunny' nibbles sort of fits in with the Easter theme
whereas croc nibbles is definately for the monster auctions!!
a handie kind of pet there Trout

Are I get it now sorry..it's like a normal auction where they ask to start the bidding and if they have no takers it drops until someone says yay to the price and if no more bidders then item goes for that price but most auctions take off once someone makes the first bid..very funny that.

Nibbles sometimes goes to a local 'house auction' that runs like that
and it took her a bit to realise what was going on

the start price goes down
then if there is a 'sudden' interested from another bidder the price can go up above the start price too

gets a bit confusing but fun

Thinking is dangerous, it makes you think. That\'s why many people avoid it.
