[QUOTE="Leadfoot, post: 1092734, member: 2972"]What's schill bidding? ;) :) Frankly, I don't really worry much about shill bidding. I figure out what I want to bid and bid it. On eBay that equates to a fire and forget snipe. On larger internet auctions, it typically means bidding in the last minute of the auction. At live auctions (which I very infrequently attend/bid), my strategy depends on the auction and the piece I'm going after, but more often than not I bid late in an auction. What's in common with each of these venues is that I figure out how much I'm willing to pay for an item long before the heat of the moment, and I try very hard not get caught up in last minute adjustments or "auction fever".
