<p>[QUOTE="Just Carl, post: 529747, member: 4552"]I keep well away from estate auctions. The reason is some time back someone I know worked for an auction house. They would have estate auctions all the time. His job was to go there, sit in a seat, bid on items until they reached the prices the auction houses wanted, then stop bidding. Know as a ringer in the audience. If he won the bid, the item would just go back on for another auction. Heard that, watched a few, never again.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
