Default Lots of perspectives

It is obviously impossible to please everyone. Earlier thread auctions have too big of increment. This thread bid increments too small and not uniform.

It all seems pretty petty. Seems like a lot of people just like to complain and try to modify all others to think and behave just like them. Good luck with that.

I have participated in live auctions of heavy machinery and seen the auctioneer accept $50 bid on $100,000.00 piece of machinery because that person was a good customer.

The moment we were expected to succumb to unwritten rules is the moment that political correctness and other personal freedoms were bypassed in our current society. As was pointed out earlier, the seller gets benefit of additional money(regardless of amount), a bump, Daddy War Bucks (the high increment bidder) is now out and may jump the bid again. The buyer gets a benefit because he can reevaluate his bid level and decide if he wants to bid again with very little added cost.

To consider this an insult to someone is insulting in itself.
