In that scenario, it sounds like you are manipulating yourself.

Sometimes I buy stuff, sometimes I win stuff at auction. I know what I am willing to pay for something either way, and while I seldom or never have bidders' remorse for spending too much, I frequently win stuff for less than I had decided I would be willing to pay.

Maybe it comes down to fiscal discipline?
