    Yes, start the bidding super-low to stir up excitement! I shall be sniping at $250,000 at the last second.

  • RogerBRogerB Posts: 8,852 ✭✭✭✭✭

    I tried to bid a generous 50-cents for the bunch with seller paying postage, but it didn't go through. Must have been that green "David Crocket" cent.

    If sellers can still monitor how many people have viewed or are watching the auction, he has to be wondering why there are so many watchers and no bids.

    I have a hunch you will win it for well under your max bid. Maybe even less than $931.00. :D

    Lithium can be helpful in cases like this. If none close at hand, the ol' tinfoil hat is almost as good.

    Notice the first option under the seller's name is:

    I can't bid. I'm saving up to buy the Thousand-Dollar Twinkie.

    If I win the lottery in the meantime, I'll buy this.
