I was just outbid on a coin and wasn't even the underbidder. How's that coin recession I keep hearing about on this board?

is that an indication of a lack of bidders?
If it's something you really want, add $10,000 to your max bid and bid at the last minute.
A nuclear bid will win every time, and you only pay one increment more than the underbidder.

Not that I can see; however, proof type is supposedly one of the most active segments of the market right now.

I honestly think that as Laura Sperber said, only the sub-par material is what is hurting. I deal many in toned material, what many would consider "above-par" and I haven't noticed any drop in purchasing. Sales have been very strong for me over the past few months. Heh, even coins with milkspots that I've had sold for good money...

What if....
What if two people use this same philosophy?
COuld you not end up bidding $10,018 on an 18 dollar original bid?
Just curious,

What about two people with a million dollar "nuclear bid"? Good grief. LOL

All it takes is two "bidiots", and "KA-CHING!"

I've seen a few 3 legged Buffalos and Morgan toners in the past few days go for PCGS prices, but not much else.
I lose many, many auctions, because I'm cheap. But I don't get caught up. Still I've got a nice collection.
There is always another coin a few hours or days behind.
