You realize that when you look to see how many folks are watching your auction...
About a hundred of them will be O'Cultists now.
Just a fair warning. :cool: |

Sorry to hear you're not posting internationally. (England UK) I'd certainly like to have a bid on this ! Best of luck with it anyway, it's a beautiful guitar ! |

Location: Phoenix, AZ | Help me out here, please. If mrsunburst had it won at $937.24, why did he keep bidding, and why did his later bids raise his own purchase price. It looks like he was bidding against himself and this cost him $112. Can someone explain this to me? |

Location: Cincinnati | Even though he was high bidder, he had to keep increasing his price to meet the reserve price. Once he met the reserve price of $1,050, he probably increased his bid 2 more times in case someone sniped it with a higher bid at the last second. Since no one bid higher than the reserve price, the amounts of his additional bids would only show as the lowest amount necessary to win the auction. Hope this helps.

I also want to thank Paul for all of his help the past few weeks. I've been trying to help a friend buy an Ovation and had contacted Paul about the Collector Series he had just sold. He offered his help finding one. He has explained differences in the models, what questions to ask, and answered a lot of my questions. Truly appreciated.

Location: Yorkshire, England | You can't increase the bid against yourself on an eBay item once it has reached its reserve price. (If there was a reserve on it)
If the guitar had a $1000.00 reserve and you bid
$1000.00 then the reserve would have been met.
If you again subsequently bid $1100.00 for instance, it would not push up your own bid any further - Some other person would have to come in at over $1100.00 to beat you !
I had a little computer trouble which prevented me from placing a bid, but it was on the limit of what I was going to bid myself if I had had the chance. It's a great instrument Brittany, hope you got what you expected for it - sorry I was unable to have a go myself. Everyone in U.S. must be up against it when there is around $2.12 to the English Pound ! |
