Default Wait....

As exciting as these 'gems' are...it's best not to bid until the very last second, especially when there's a sniper in the mix. I've been eBaying since 1997 and learned very quickly that if I wanted something really bad I had to play it cool and wait. This gives the impression that the item(s) in question aren't going to sell and the sniper relaxes. If you're willing to pay a large amount for these treasured tapes...don't place any bids until the very end (you're only outbidding yourself each time you do and it's counter productive) I'd be willing to kick in a fair share as long as the bidder plays it cool and waits till the very last second to place their bid ; )

I'll be watching these auctions very closely...especially the Neal Preston slides
