I will respect any unwritten rules on this forum or any other. Just wanting to know what they are helps. I wouldn't want to step on toes.
Yes. Imagine you spent 100's of hours searching for your personal Holy Grail. You finally see it listed in an unusual spot and are preparing to win it. Then it gets "announced" on the Board to everyone and another collector goes and makes an offer and gets it before the auction ends. D'oh!
