Default Auctions ending early to the chagrin of bidders

Posted By: Joe Pelaez

Please tell me why I should start bidding 6 days before the end of the auction?

Outside of ego, what is the advantage of getting into an ego fight with anyone 6-5-4-3-2 days before the end of an auction?

I don't believe in tipping off what I'm interested in before the last few seconds of an auction, maybe you do?

If a seller wants to shut down and take an offer, ... what's the problem?

The only thing that they'll miss is:
Is the outcome of ... The shootout at the O.K. corral.

If the item is really good, God knows what the numbers would be.

David, your style is usually to disappear after questions like this, but if you decide to stay, thoroughly think out your thoughts before you tap them down.
Try to avoid:

You don't want the editing to be longer than your answer.
