Phew, that was close.

I wasn't going to bid on this again but the nibbler 8645elizabeth made
me do it, why don't nibblers just bid their max and be done with it,
what's the point of six slowly rising bids?

It it less work, no.

Will they get it cheaper, no.

Does it may them look foolish, yes.

At the end she wasn't the underbidder anyway. Billy

Let's face it, a lot of people simply don't understand how eBay's proxy
bidding works, and as a result, they make a lot of tiny little bids. It's
stupid, but so is bidding in the first place.

I never bid on eBay; I _always_ either use Buy It Now or I snipe. Bidding
early just alerts competition to the fact that you've found something
undervalued and encourages others to bid against you.

I have a few examples with the plain G prefix but none with the G/number
prefix, they don't turn up very often. Billy

It's in-between very tidy and untidy. :-)

I'd much rather have an honest dirty and wrinkled note than a pressed and
cleaned dishonest one, there are a lot more of the latter than the former
on ebay. Billy

Yes Billy

I've sold a few notes on ebay
for them to turn up again a lot cleaner and a higher grade

I never buy cleaned or pressed notes for my own personal collection
or to resell

When I asked one of my buyers where the dirt and wrinkles had got to on the
note they bought from me and had it listed on ebay he blamed his daughter.

That particular ebayer often improves notes and resells them on ebay. Billy
