<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 7604891, member: 19463&quot;]I find it interesting that some of you prefer sales where you bid a dozen times creeping up on the unknown max posted earlier.&nbsp; Frank&#039;s old style system tells you what you need to pay to take the lead rather than wasting your time and bidding up a lot you have no chance of winning.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I prefer the old fashion way.&nbsp; You send in one set of bids.&nbsp; When the sale closes, the high bid wins the lot.&nbsp; If you are honest and bid what you are willing to pay, you win coins.&nbsp; If you send low ball bids, you only win lots no one else wanted.&nbsp; Frank also allows the old fashioned &#039;bid limits&#039; where you send in $1000 worth of bids and tell him to stop executing your bids when you have spent your limit of $200.&nbsp; My Favorite auction of all time was an NFA mail sale where I sent in 8 bids totaling $1000 and a list of 22 others to be executed only as far as would keep my bill under $1000.&nbsp; I won one of the 8 and 5 of the 22.&nbsp; How they picked which of my 22 to execute makes no difference to me.&nbsp; I assume it gave them the most profit.&nbsp; Those coins are still highlights of my collection.&nbsp; Without the bid limit, I would only have won this one as of Domna.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1309338[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>With the bid limits, it was joined by these.&nbsp; By NFA standards, these were trash lots. </p><p>[ATTACH=full]1309339[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1309340[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1309343[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1309344[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1309347[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>If you don&#039;t like the way a business is run, shop elsewhere.&nbsp; There probably is someone else who will be glad you went away.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
