...Your bidding isn't "strange" Dave...Me and Trax have speculated about how some of the pieces you've searched out and bid on early in the auctions were suddenly taken at the last second by a certain group of "profit takers/makers". Seems to make me wonder if they aren't following your habits and ability to find the rarities that they can't find by themselves...By the way...I have a couple of 110's torn apart that are lookin' for scales and blades right now. One's an FG frame and the other is an old slab-side...Both looked like they got dropped out of a 747 from 29,000 feet...
...LOL...Gonna wait and see if a BG-42 blade suddenly appears ( wishful thinking ) somewhere and maybe some black micarta...That would make 'em look neat huh?...
yes many times i wander at sniffing out some thing as i surch many difftent ways and sort through lots and lots of buck stuff ...
i miss some as you know
times in my sick paranoide ways that i wander if some one was watching my biding but there is no way to find out what some one is bidding on but to see they have bid bu looking at the item
now i have strange paterns that i dont mind saying of as i change up so much
gen if you see an .88 cent on it i am tracking it and likely to bid again.
if you see a .66 cent bid i dont care and am jest watching.
and 89 i am watching closely
and 98 i am going to try to buy same as a 33.
if i open a bid i open at 6.16 and the next bid will be three 6's
and i am hexing (phycing) the other bidder to not bid again as un lucky
same as my first bid being 16.16 it will go to 16.66 and again i am hexing the next bidder
some times i feel out by step bidding one dallor at a time for a lot of dollors
most times i stop when i have reached what i consiter a fair price.
some itmes i step bid so i know what steps others are biding...
some times i jest snipe at the max it is worth to me and no more at all..
most times i am bidding to watch as i want to be sure to see it...
what does get me is thoes that bid and
[as i track biders on wxpensive bucks of all kinds ]
see them later about 4 weeks selling it some times on the forum some times on the E. i know of at least four here that buy and sell a lot takeing profits as they can and i dont have issue with that mostly.. even whin i lose to them.
i remind my self to buy cause i want it ...
because i rember many many buying and selling base ball cards and many got stuck badly and i know the ones in it for profite will get stuck in the end
collectors that buy cause theneed a better one sure they and i both sell
but i dont run downt he invester to badly as i know sooner or later he will WILL get stuck with stuff he cant move....
and listing on the E is not free.... fee's can add up...
but over all i always wander
how the heck they founnd it and knew what my high bid was!!!
who the heck they paying off!!!!
some one at ebay is goin to pay when i find out they got a tail on me !!!!
