I have been sniped at the last second on here but I gave credit to the sniper, dusted myself off and moved on. Personally I don't see the need for max bids or extensions.

IMO the biggest problem with the bst auctions is how few of them there are! (Excepting the ones that just sit there because the starting bid is too high...)

Sniping is the most logical way to bid.

Yes, I really appreciate that we have that section now. I just wish there were more auctions there

I try to list a few $1 auctions per month. If everyone here would do the same, there would be some amazing items on there. (Shameless plug - check out mine for this week!)

I vote no. I haven't read all of the responses but I can see three major issues with doing this.

1. If someone lists a $200 card someone could put in a max bid of $200 and other possible bidders could be scared away knowing they wouldn't have a chance to win the card at less than $200. The card could potentially sell for $50 or so.

2. If someone lists a $200 card someone could put in a max bid of $200 and another member could put in a bid of $199 just to make the $200 bidder pay his max bid.

3. If someone lists a $200 card someone could put in a max bid of $200 and the seller could have a friend place shill bids to run the bid up
