I am pretty much the same way.
Interestingly, the poll is still almost 50/50 for yes and no....

If the items are not on my want list, I have no problem discussing the auction with someone else.
Case in point - there's a non-sport auction ending next weekend. I have a friend who collects Spider-Man. I don't. I've made him aware of the auction and encouraged him to register. I have bids in the auction, just not on any of those items.
If I thought he and I would wind up bidding on the same things, I likely would not have brought it up.
