<p>[QUOTE="sand, post: 7513859, member: 118540"]Are the current bids anywhere close to your maximum bids? Or are the current bids still way below your maximum bids? If the current bids are anywhere close to your maximum bids, then like @<a href="https://www.cointalk.com/members/restitutor.112621/" class="internalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.cointalk.com/members/restitutor.112621/">Restitutor</a> said, you will probably be overbid, and if that happens, then you won't have to worry, except for the sadness of not winning the desired coins. I have limited experience bidding on CNG. I've only bid on 1 coin so far, which I won. And it was a CNG electronic auction, not a feature auction. But for the one coin I won, which was a few weeks ago, the winning bid tripled during the final day of the auction. And many people have been saying, that these auctions have been going crazy, in the last year.</p><p>Edit : P.S. : If the current winning bids are below your maximum bids, I wonder if you are allowed to decrease your maximum bids, just using the web site bidding user interface, so that your maximum bids are equal to the current winning bids. That would increase your chances of getting overbid.</p><p>Edit : P.P.S. : Another factor is, are you the only person, who has bid on these coins? If multiple persons have bid on the coins, then that increases your chances of being overbid. If you are the only bidder so far, then your chances of being overbid are less.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
