Hi,

It has  happened that i was bidding on an item and was outbid. Next time
the item appeared some months later ...same story.
Next time .......again several bidders. This time I bid until nobody
outbids me and won the item for an exorbitant high price. A few weeks we
later the same item for sale again ..... and sells for less then 1 tenth of
what I paid for it.  This has happend three times before. Twice with a out
of print book an once with an out of print record.
VERY FRUSTRATING !
All times I started bidding a few days before the end of the auction and am
wondering if the seller by any chance, noticing  how eager I was, managed
to bid for his own auction. How to explain that for the same item there is
massive bidding going on and a few weeks later after I paid a fortune
nobody seems to want it.
