<p>[QUOTE="Pellinore, post: 2571755, member: 74834"]An auction is always unpredictable. The strongest and most pretentious bidder can have a reason not to bid as high as you expect: he can have a traffic or internet disturbance, a hiccup or a coughing fit. He can have his eyes on another coin for which he is planning to spend a lot of money. My advice is, don't look at the others but do according to your own plans. A smart strategy directed against other bidders rarely works out well, and it may explode in your face: you end up with the wrong coin for too much money.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
