Nothing worse than two friends running each other up if it can be avoided.

Exceptions exist of course. If there is something on my "must have" (ridiculously short list) - all bets are off - would likely have the conversation anyway, expressing my interest and trying to get my friends to back off.
Most stuff I'm not that attached and as Phil said - take turns with guys I know going after it.
