Can't argue with that at all. But most people look at us card collecting junkies as weird to begin with, so they're not going to have any sympathy. LOL

In truth, I don't think it would really make things that much worse overall. On a few items here and there with a couple of dedicated bidders, you'll likely always have some auction lots like that. Just depends on how the AH has their bidding terms and rules set up, and if they are conducive to creating some long, drawn-out auction lots like that.
