[QUOTE="KMacGinley, post: 601287, member: 3175"] I can understand a minimum bid, but I rarely buy at an auction that has one. I also understand the floor, but one thing that I can not tolerate is auctioneers pulling phantom bids out of thin air. I have left more than one guy holding the bag on that. What they will do is look to their ring man to save them and he will pretend that there was a mistake, pick some guy out and act like he thought he was in. Then they will go back to me. I say no. Unless I can see my competitor bidding, I quit. Nowadays they will act like they have someone on the phone or internet. Many of them seem to be crooked. I would rather that everything was out in the open, like with the minimum, the problem is that most of them set their minimums too high. [/QUOTE]
