<p>[QUOTE="BNB Analytics, post: 741254, member: 20117"]Sure, here's some condensed advice that's short but sweet.. Bid only an amount that you can afford to pay and please, I can't stress this enough, do not get into a bidding war. Oh yeah, also, don't just bid to bid either. There will be other times to get that coin you like, but if you MUST get it, make sure you know how much that coin will not only resell for, but how much it is truly worth to you..</p><p><br /></p><p>Read my signature.. It's HUGE to know what you want ahead of time and even get the catalogue if that auction house offers one so you know what is coming up in what lot. Then when you've decided on your buy, research its true market value by seeing how much ebay, heritage, grey sheet has it listed for and that's it. Save this or print it out as a reference, it's good to have.</p><p><br /></p><p>Oh, and yes, you can bid on the auction because you're 20 and yes bring your notepad! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>BNB[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
