I don't understand this thread at all Smiling ! It's an auction. It's bidding on something you want. If two or more people want the same item, they are supposed to bid against each other until two reach the limit they are willing to go, with higher bid taking the item. No??? I'm glad my name is totally different on the LA than here on ATP. If someone also bids against the same item, that's fine. The auction is a nice thing, but it's not going to be very good for sellers if no one is willing to bid against someone. They might all have to go to the store and 'fixed price' in order to keep selling. That means bargains probably won't be common. If the bidding works like it should, then they win some, lose some and it works out. But if folks won't bid against someone they won't ever win and any bargains will be rare. After saying all that, I don't recall ever having another bidder for something I was putting a bid on. I wonder if people avoided bidding once I put a bid on an plant.
