ParticipantThis is academic, but say you show up at the auction…the bidding becomes you vs. this other guy, and the place winds up selling for $1000 above the maximum price the loser of the auction thinks it’s worth. If the other guy thinks it’s worth 290K, you get it for 291K.
Bottom line: That guy may have gotten a steal, but you wouldn’t have gotten it for the same price he did, and may not have been anywhere near.
So, academically, you should feel better: This reasoned approach has always worked well with women…LOL.

ParticipantThank you, Asianautica…that is clear to me now after trying the nice approach.
From now on, my only response to Alex (and I encourage others with same) will be Troll.

ParticipantAlex,
Wanted to give you the straight up truth without being nasty:
Most of the folks on this board are much more knowledgeable than you are. If you want to learn from them, I’d encourage you to post questions rather than opinions. When you post opinions, your reasoning is typically either flawed, or trite, and you aren’t really adding value. If you continue to post opinions, I must assume that you simply enjoy the excitement of others tearing into you.
In all seriousness, ask yourself if you want drama or learnings. If you want drama, continue to post opinions. If you want to learn, ask questions and learn from folks who know much more than you do…humble yourself, my friend, or others will continue to do it for you.
