I've had one experience at an auction house (years ago and it was Goldin). They had a Mike Schmidt collection and I just had to have an item. I knew this would be an item to fetch thousands. So I put a max bid in that I was comfortable with and worth it. I was winning throughout with an amount decently lower than my max bid. Needless to say I happily won the item.
But I was pretty shocked/surprised that it went all the way to my max bid. Thought it was too much of a coincidence, and have never bid on anything from any auction house since. I just don't trust them.
