Well it just jumped to 2100. I'm currently holding the highest bidder position, hopefully it doesn't jump out of my price range.

This is the best condition woodgrain I have seen. It is the most desireable woodgrain I have seen other than one signed and used by a game industry founder.

Jeez Nevada, stop freaking bidding. Bid once, bid at the last possible moment, and bid with your top dollar price, otherwise you just push the price up (anyone thinking of bidding on my stuff disregard this message and bid early and often).

Doh. If it goes over my current bid, I'll do as advised. Thanks for correcting me on my lack of auction knowledge.

Don't think it matters too much with this particular item ( I see the price going pretty high) but it is a general principle on bidding, and if you can't be there to bid at the last minute yourself I'm sure some people here can point you to automatic bidding software.

Snipe. It is the way Ebay bidders win. Sellers hate it for a reason.

I took Jason's advise and got a sniping program (GavelThief). Also wanted to say good luck to all of those here bidding on the Box set.

Heck, at this point I'd be happy to get a few snipers on my auctions. They've been noticeably absent lately.

Same seller. Did Frank have some trouble with this guy? I know he has sold some expensive stuff recently, anyone deal with him recently?

He had another R3 a couple weeks ago.

And I'm pretty sure those are stock photos...
