If I recognize the user handle of a bidder as someone from this forum (difficult because some of you guys use different names for your auction handles) I'll send that person a private PM asking how much they want that coin and whether they could let me take a stab at it. If it's something they really want, I back off. If they offer to let me have it, I let them know that likewise I'd be happy to back off on a coin in the future and let them have it.</p><p><br /></p><p>Likewise, I've had people here PM me (easy because I use Sallent also as my handle at auction) and they've asked me if I would let them have a coin I was bidding on. That's happened to me three times, and in all three occasions I stepped aside and let them have the coin...even though I obviously wanted the coins enough to make a serious attempt at auction. I figured that hopefully those members will repay the favor in kind sometime in the future.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
