That makes two of us, Jason. When I declined, the seller said he was selling it to someone overseas. That guitar probably has more miles on it than my last Hyundai...

I don't understand what game geronemartin could be playing. It looks pretty wierd, but is he just goofing or is there some strategy at play here?

Here is the bid history from the auction on my Adamas a few weeks ago:

[list]
[*]e4bip1 US $1,000.00 (BIN price)
[*]bandit_won US $799.99
[*]velvis15yf US $750.01
[*]velvis15yf US $699.01
[*]bandit_won US $699.00
[*]garonemartin US $599.00
[*]bandit_won US $599.00
[*]yardfisch US $525.00
[*]bandit_won US $500.00
[*]garonemartin US $499.00
[*]o-bay-sales US $333.00
[/list]

garonemartin made two bids, and they both seemed "reasonable". My reserve was $800, so both times he knew (after his bid) that he was short.

I don't understand the subtleties of eBay that well. I don't get what is going on here.

Omaha, Why does it look to you like garonemartin did anything strange? He bid 499 and didn't hit the reserve. he saw some more people bid so he upped it to 599. Still didn't hit the reserve. 3 other people bid higher and e4bip1 finally won it. garonemartin did nothing strange. bandit_one and velvis15fy did exactly the same thing as garonemartin. I see no proof that he has ever done anything wrong. Dave
