I try to avoid "blow out" bidding, but, as a mere mortal, sometimes I get drawn in, especially if the coin is really rare and is in my areas of interest. There are good buys out there, especially with coins with no bids and are placed as post auction fixed priced coins. It takes research and time though, but the rewards can be really nice.[/QUOTE]
