That's crazy! Somebody should pop in a couple of bids considering C***G (1) is the high bidder over himself 3 times! :lol:

Look at the rookies bid this up. For some reason thinking there is an advantage to be high bidder for the day. Hope that tag team bids on all my future listings.

Most new bidders don't have a clue, but you could be right. However why would you put a huge bid on an item ? unless you were going to be trapped in a cave with many really hot woman and an unlimited supply of beer for the rest of the weekend. Other wise wait and use the 15 second rule with your highest bid.

Good B series G-1's are hard to come by especially in a size 46 so I think if 2 or 3 bidders really want this jacket the price will go higher by the end of auction.....I sold a mint Sz 42 Ralph Edwards B series on eBay last summer for $1225

That's about £550 I reckon.......I'd consider paying that if I could be 100% sure it's as good as it looks

I often put autobids in and quite enjoy watching people putting dozens of bids in at the end to no avail.
I didn't buy this jacket btw but would have paid similar as a top whack.
If you read The Art of Strategy by Avinash Dixit he discusses the merit (or lack thereof) of late bidding on ebay and various different strategies about bidding in different auction formats. He indicates the only possible reason not to put a max bid in early is if you think others may not know the value of the item and you don't want to draw attention to it.
Interesting stuff
I often win with a max bid and usually if I don't it's a fair cop and someone wants to pay more. If you are honest with yourself and place a solid max bid that is your actual maximum you can't go far wrong.
