A word of caution.........
All auctioneers (on-line and in the real world) try to maintain security, and prevent people / concerns / etc.. bidding on goods they have entered into the auction. i.e. "bidding up" the price on their own goods.
Which sometimes results in some very strange results, in all sorts of auctions.
However, having extensive knowledge of the field, most will admit it is well nigh impossible to completely stop the practice.
( Or, indeed, the practice of a group "ringing" goods they want, and auctioning them afterwards between themselves. )
So the price you keep "out-bidding" may not be made by a genuine bidder, just as the one item you see may not be the only one, or the experts who you think aren't interested in a lot, may very well be...........
"Caveat emptor" , I believe, should be your rule...........
