[QUOTE="tibor, post: 3118349, member: 73385"]I don't understand this last minute or last second bidding. I just put in my max bid and let it ride. If I'm out bid then so be it. This last second bidding and it's anxiety can't be healthy (blood pressure). When Clio out bids you more than likely he might be using a similair strategy to mine. In recent non E Auctions, my max bid was 3-8 times high estimate and my top bid was half of what it took to win the lot. This scenario plays out for me quite often. Over the last few auctions with Elsen, Keunker, Hohn to name a few I am a 25-35% winner. And unlike most of you I do not enjoy the hunt, OWNERSHIP is everything to me. Many things in life come down to "bragging rights" and that is how I collect coins. If only I had Eliasbergs resources.[/QUOTE]
