Whoa, hold on there, pardner! I don't know if I'd equate the two! You could
just shoot someone who drives like that;-) As far as sniping goes, I have
come in late on occasion and put in last minute bids but the difference was
that, sometimes, the standing bid was so high (for me), that I finally gave
up. Which is how it should be. In the end you bid your max and the highest
wins. *Sometimes* you get lucky and you get something cheaper than for which
you would have bid. If anything IMO, G1,G2,Sold promotes "auction fever" where
two people keep insanely bidding against each other out of spite, "forgetting"
the ultimate value of the part or set on which they are bidding. Maybe it
would be best to make an auction anonymous?
