<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Kasia, post: 2357195, member: 31533&quot;]here&#039;s a nice little case in point: </p><p><br /></p><p>There was a buy it now opportunity for 5 of one thing for X dollars.</p><p>And a bidding from a low starting point for a 10 of the same thing. It was at X + about 50% of the 5 group. So I put in a bid of about X + 75% of that. The high bidder &#039;outbid&#039; me on that one. Still has like 3 or 5 days to go. So it comes up asking if I want to &#039;up&#039; my bid and gives me 3 choices. I said what the heck and hit the button that put it at the highest of the three choices, making my bid now at about X + 118% of the 5 group. It still left me not the &#039;high&#039; bidder with the person having the high bid now at about X + 120-125% (I am simply estimating for illustrative purposes). At this point, I realized that for what I wanted now, it might be more opportunistic to simply stop bidding on this one and go back and do a buy it now. Which I did. I will see later what the group of 10 goes for, since there were at least 3 bidders interested in it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
