the game was bought for 450.00 plus fees by John Yates. There you go, you now know who bought it. Does it make you feel better?
As for bidding against each other. Sometimes you have to, You try to work with each other as much as you can. But you cant always do that. I know that i stayed away from a few machines that John wanted, and he stayed away from a few that i wanted. But there were a few that we both wanted and we but heads then. Sometimes its business. Sometimes its pleasure.
Ive been known to bid someone up on a game just to make sure that they dont get the game or that they paid way to much.
Also, sometimes, working with each other can bite you in the ass. For example. Say that there is a hydro thunder going real cheap, and someone you know is bidding on it. So to be nice, you stay out of it becaues its a keeper for them and a flipper for you. But then the person hesitates at a low price and stalls, then the auctioneer says sold. Had i known that the klover was going to bow out when he did, i would have gladly bid, or another klover would have as he was waiting to get in on it as well. (yes this is aimed at you Chris)
