I have won things from them. Like I said in my first post, they ship quickly and safely after I pay. Never had issues in that regard. It’s more me being fed up bidding on the same items, auction after auction, because they never sold and my trying to figure out what the real high bid is/was and whether I chase things. As mentioned, I think I figured out how, at least, Iconic works so I know whether I am bidding against the AH or another bidder. I Suspect that knowledge will work in other auctions that use hidden reserves and can bid lots up if the opening bid, number of bidders, and bidding increments is disclosed.
As an aside, I am high bidder on one item that closes in their auction tonight, but the current bid accurately reflects the number of bidders x 10% increments, going back to the initial bid amount.
