leonFolks track other folks bids is why some don't bid early as it shows who is interested in it, which can be a bad thing. Like for instance (let me pick on Hal) if I see Hal bidding on something early it might make me bid more at the end...knowing that if he's on it it could go higher than if say.....Jay B. is on it. (I had to throw that in, that's just a joke Jay 
).....regards
