Default REA is beautiful, but browsing bids leaves me depressed

Posted By: nbrazil

I hear what you're feeling, Ed. I am planning to bid on only one item...a low grade example of somewhat scarce card...and it's already above my 2nd threshold (I have 3 thresholds...the 1st is the "Okay, it's reached my ideal price...but i want the card, so i'll still bid". My 2nd is "Oh oh, this is trouble. re-evaluate my need and want for the card and bid accordingly." My last threshold is "Next time, I guess.").

I dont bid too often on the big auctions like mastro and REA, but when i do im blown away pretty early. That's why private transaction and even ebay is better for me.
