I'll speak up as someone who has bid multiple times, and even won one of these lots.

Based on my on experience of being outbid and also winning, I
KNOW that the bids have been strong.

The first few lots I bid on, I didn't get responses back. Based on the prices that I know about, it is because I was WAY UNDER ($10/card or more) the top bid. I'd guess that Steve is fielding dozens of emails, and those that are well under don't get responses. There were three lots where I put in a stronger initial offer, and Steve let me know that there was a bid over mine and gave me the opportunity to counter.
