    Someone has more money than I do. Need call in some loans and favours before bidding higher.

    I'm really glad for the seller, but continue to be baffled why anyone would bid more than 5 minutes before the close of an auction. (And not within the last 2 minutes or it auto-extends).

    Because some people don't care about playing those stupid little games? Do you really think you're acheiving anything by doing this? You know, at least half a dozen other people have the same idea as you, and it only takes one other person to make your idea completely worthless.

    Personally I only care about paying a fair price for a fair deal, so I put in my top dollar and push auto-bid. If I get it, great. If not, I move on.

    I don't know why you are so offended by it. The whole thing is a game. I much prefer dealing with classified prices and then negotiating in person if I believe the price is too high. To believe that the sellers aren't treating it as a game too seems a little naive. That's the whole point of fixed price, hidden reserves, etc isn't it? Why should they be the ones with all the cards in their hand? They have the goods, I have the cash. I'd expect the same if I was listing an item, and I'd set a Buy Now at a realistic price so people are tempted to take up that.

    so the seller doesn't withdraw it and yes this happens on $1 reserves quite frequently.

    No matter the final bid (a dollar or a couple grand), all I want is the final bidder to pay cleanly.

    Sure there was a risk but it was a calculated risk. I've planned and shared the Trademe link widely through social network from help of my friends. I've also studies how other dollar res bikes went and other sports bikes were selling.

    Result? Over 50 watchers and 4 grand within 12 hours. I'm happy with it already.
