I put my max bid in when the auction has less then 5 seconds left. If I didn't bid high enough, it will end before I can consider increasing it.

I also never bid an amount ending in "0" or "5" (like $25.00, $25.50, $25.35). My bids usually end in 1-4 or 6-9 (IE: "$25.68")

My bids also do, soulchief.
Sometimes you win by a penny.

AgCoinAu,
I could put together a roll of 20 dollars (Morgans & Peace) if that would work for you.
Or a roll of 20 Barber halves. Or both.
The best halves were sent to Honolulu where they report that the like the beach and the sunshine!
You silver stackers are relentless in your search.
I'd rather that they go to a CCF member.

I can't say I offer the same scenary here... unfortunately.. it's the great white north and in the middle of the praries... I can offer lots of snow for scenary .. and the ability if your dog runs away to be able to watch him/her for at least 3 days in the horizon...

Seriously though your silver would always find a happy home over here and have lots of friends to play with... feel free to drop me a PM

I had a little chit-chat with the coins. The Peace dollars volunteered first, saying,
"Solidarity with our friends to the north!"
The Morgans were a bit hesitant:
"We don't like the cold so much."
The Barbers then chimed in: "We are here to serve, and a few of us like huskies.
Maybe we can learn a new sport."
I'll work them until they all relent.

Like some, I have a mixture of seller's and buyer's remorse.

Sometimes sad I let go my childhood hot wheels from the 1960's and early 1970's - lots of mint and hard to find cars, plus they were mine. The $2k I sold them for then was good, but I'd rather still have them.

Buying, sometimes it's hard to pass on a coin that I know is a great deal, though I already have one in my collection. I know I can resell them, but for the time and effort needed, some self control would be better.

I think everyone who's dealt on ebay regularly has been sniped at the end of an auction. Sometimes I'm relieved to have saved hundreds of dollars, and other times it's a let down when I really wanted the coin. But, I always remind myself I didn't lose by $0.01 or $1 or $5, given the buyer probably would have bid a lot higher than the final price.
