Auctions are a double edged sword.

Good point! I've done that. I've even found the unwanted stuff in dumpsters behind the auction house (not that anyone would throw coins away but who knows.)

You can tell Jagger didn't go to Von Mises for his economic
lessons. Imagine if he had: " if you try some time you just
might find, you get marked to market."

 

So you get to collude but others don't? Who decides who gets to collude?

How do you think prices get higher? people who want them go the extra mile and pay more. As for this "fair share" comrade, who decides what is fair?

They had no choice! Did you report to the police the fact there there were people there holding guns on the bidders forcing them to bid more than they wanted to.

So stick it out and keep coming until those other people stop coming and then you can buy the coins cheaper.

Yes I will admit this does happen, and it is still colluding and unfair to the seller but it does and will continue to happen.

 

Detecto - are you as comfortable with seller cheating (using shills) as you are with buyer cheating (collusion)?

Just curious.

 

That is a great question!

 

Which person is just an average Joe trying to get his fair share from The Man? Cuz it's OK to stick it to The Man!
