<p>[QUOTE=&quot;White Ger. Shep. Lover, post: 4510928, member: 108450&quot;]Yep, it&#039;s what I do.&nbsp; My &quot;max bid&quot; minus 15% is the way I roll on these auctions.&nbsp; I do not win that many, but in the whole scheme of things, that&#039;s not such a bad thing.&nbsp; You&nbsp; should be winning only about 3-5% of the ebay auctions that you enter.&nbsp; Anything more than that and you are most likely bidding too much.&nbsp; The only drawback with waiting until the final few seconds is getting shut out due to technical difficulties beyond your control.&nbsp; Rekindles memories from a few years ago.&nbsp;&nbsp; Late night auction on a beautifully NT 15-S Lincoln,&nbsp; looked dead red.....actually RB.....torn between 62-63.....seller was not a coin person......most of their items were clay animal figurines, dolls, charm bracelets and other &quot;exciting&quot; trinkets.&nbsp;&nbsp; Anyway, things were setting up very nicely for a great deal.&nbsp;&nbsp; I couldn&#039;t believe the weak action on this coin.&nbsp; With only 1 minute remaining, only $85 had been bid.&nbsp; I popped in my bid of.......think it was like $320 with 5 seconds left and my screen froze.....I must have whacked my bid button 20 times in those 5 seconds, but there was nothing I could do.&nbsp; The winning bid was only $183.&nbsp; It was kind of like having that trophy sized muskie right on up to the boat and then having your line snap just as you&#039;re about to net him.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
