I'd like to offer some cautionary notes for auction bidders, if i may. Most are lessons learned from years of experience ... both good and bad. I don't post that often, mostly because i like to fly under the radar
but a few well-respected members know me
I'll try to organize so that there's one "lesson" (so to speak) per post. I'll also offer my best, unbiased advice ... without any agenda, other than to share & maybe inform.
I've thought about this quite a bit. I've concluded that it just benefits no one, who is passionate and really cares about our hobby, if "mistakes" are made at auction.
So here goes ... please feel free to add, comment or ignore, of course!
