I never bid before the last second, what is the point in showing your hand. What annoys me is shill bidding, that is: the practice of having your friends and associates bid the price up. I understand the seller wanting to get a good price, but that is what has killed the auction experience. It would be more honest to simply start the biding at the least you will take. I understand the why of it, the tiered listing price promotes the practice.
