Well Joe;
I am an Auction Hound. I go to local auctions, looking for unusual
items, both for myself and for eBay. Friday auctions are great, because
the fools are working. Sat Auctions are not so great because they are
there. I've seen them pay more for used, damaged items than the could
buy it new for in the store.
As for eBay, I bid, near the end, what I'm comfortable with, and
usually add a few dollars. I'd hate to lose a $20 item that went for
$22. So, I over bid a little, if I really want it, and if I don't get
it, at least the winner paid a little extra.
Moral here: win it yourself, or make them pay dear.

Most of my recent attempts have been foiled by one individual who
seems to have
very deep pockets, and is apparently bent on buying ANYTHING to do
with the
1957 Chrysler.
