<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Publius2, post: 7942987, member: 105571&quot;]Yes, he&#039;s pretty scuzzy which just shows the extent some people will go to save a couple of bucks.&nbsp; And his response to you clearly shows the kind of person he is.&nbsp; If he&#039;s actually a cop, that&#039;s kinda scary!</p><p><br /></p><p>But I have to admit to being puzzled about his strategy.&nbsp; Yes, he&#039;s doing a price discovery strategy but only regarding other bidder&#039;s&nbsp; CURRENT maximum bids.&nbsp; His strategy ignores other bidders&#039; sniping activities.&nbsp; If other bidders are static, then his strategy might work.&nbsp; But other bidders are not static, they also are looking to put in last minute bids.&nbsp; So, bidding $1 over his &quot;price discovery&quot; information doesn&#039;t seem likely to win, at least not often.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have no objection to sniping, I do it myself.&nbsp; But I always snipe in the maximum amount I&#039;m willing to pay and then let events unfold as they will since I can only control myself and not others.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
