i've just won a cobra trooper for £4.11 and i couldn't help but notice that there is another trooper finishing soon and it's already on £21 no different to the one i just won....crazy.

I've seen a q-force aqua trooper go for more than the same item available as a buy-it-now mint on card.

Maybe some people are so well paid by the day job that it's not worth their time to scour for the deals.

Which is all the better for the rest of us.

Personally I don't like all this Bidder 1, Bidder 2 crap. I like to know who my enemy is. If I win, I win. If I loose then at least I know who beat me. The bastard.

Also prevents you from seeing if the item is being shill bidded on. Not much of an issue on smaller items but hugely annoying on more expensive items. But I suppose it gets the final valuation fees up so it doesn't matter :roll: .

How much did you have to bleed for Moondancer, Eddie? If you don't mind me asking?
