<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Cherd, post: 8657059, member: 24754&quot;]With electronic auctions, I avoid these types of dilemmas by sticking to a simple recipe:</p><p><br /></p><p>1. Figure out the absolute maximum that I would be willing to pay.</p><p>2. Scale the amount by accounting for shipping, buyer&#039;s fees, etc.</p><p>3. Place a bid for the calculated value, rounded to match bid increments.</p><p>4. Check back after the auction to see if I&#039;ve won.</p><p><br /></p><p>The way I see it, if you place more than one bid in an electronic auction, then you are allowing somebody to manipulate you (auction house, other buyers, etc). I&#039;m already being manipulated to some extent by the auction house when accounting for bid increments in my recipe, that&#039;s about all I can take! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie56" alt=":inpain:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
