Probably taking this thread off in direction but....

I'm a rarely ever bid early, try and snipe at the end bidder. Years ago, I'd find the same bidders up against me on many items and finally figured out it was because I bid early and they just followed. Once i stopped, i'd rarely ever find them bidding against me.

I have noticed that quite a few dealers will bid something up multiple times to get their name as the current high bidder. I'm assuming its for advertising and hey, its working, as I know who you are.
