Maybe a thread saying what you're bidding on? not the seller etc, just the Size/Colourway? Should give enough info to tell people to fuck off,but not enough to tempt em?

Here's my two penneth! My forum name is my ebay name (simple as!)
To be honest I don't think I have posted ebay links on here, purely as I know most of you search anyway & will have probably spotted them well before me!
I personally wouldn't object to being outbid by anyone on this forum, as I know my bidding limits, &
the whole idea of auctions is everyone bids the amount they value the item at, & what they are prepared to spend on it anyway!
Sorry, I don't think ettiquette comes into it!

I wasn't implying there was an etiquette just in case people think there is, just that maybe we should have.
Other forums observe a first bid policy and I wondered if such a thing might be worth investigating in here.
Like it or not, we are mostly,sort of, friends in here.
Why bid against each other on items that will turn up again in a matter of weeks ?

Its a shame but you cant trust anyone, i completely agree with you Pure, but it will not be respected.
You call something, i will not bid.
I will back you up but its a waste of time.
Im out in the Fatherland right now, none of you can out bid me here...

I've got my eye on some black LUX 10s, however if they get to a few hours left without me bidding, bid away.
RE: Bidding etiquette. -
mr.pure - 06-05-07
Is the seller called Kooper ?
And how come, you ain't a 10.
RE: Bidding etiquette. -

I'm most comfortable in 10s in soups. Dunnor why. i think it is kooper.

mr.pure - 06-05-07
They've got just over an hour left now.
I was gonna buy about 3 pairs that he's holding to keep the delivery cheap and some crazy gold leaf customisation.
