HondoB, it sounds like the bidder doesn't want to lose or wants it badly enough to keep bidding higher.
Errers and Varietys.

As always, bidding behavior is a human thing--in a marketplace adorned with warts and all. Wonder how much that donkey in Lower Egypt went for centuries ago--perhaps was bid up?

Auction ended - absolutely ridiculous. And there's a buyers premium of 18% to be added to this.

Is anybody interested in a whizzed 1909 V.D.B. Lincoln Cent (not the S) for $1162? At least it's graded, I guess. I would love to have a chat with the two people who have added the coin to their watchlist to understand what they were thinking.

1910S_1C, you got me chuckling and then more chuckling into full laugh-out-loud thinking about this. I'm still laughing.

It's a shame what someone did to this coin. Almost tempted to bid on it at $15.

A thought... Just because people add items to a watch list doesn't immediately mean they are fools who can't wait to empty their pockets. I've added 'questionable' items to my watch list many, many times over several years, with the intent to observe and be able to locate/access item listings quickly.

Did you go and buy it?

Yes, I put a minimum bid and won it. Seller was a jerk, however, and wouldn't send it with standard shipping.

He was probably mad that it didn't go for something higher.
