Yeah, I'm with Pokey and Shotta too.
Lucky being a US12 and there's not many of us on the SSDB, but the few times Farmer and I were about to go head to head on a pair we worked it out on PM first. I remember specifically a pair of Ian Browns that I was going to outbid him on, but he wanted more than me so I bowed out and he got a great deal. Biggest wallet doesn't have to win - people should be able and willing to sort things out before the last few seconds of an auction.
Back when there was some good heat for me on the bay I used to have to deal with a US12 reseller in Chicago that had massive deep pockets. I had to pay a premium to him to get my UNDFTDs but everything else he outbid me on I eventually got for much cheaper. And he flamed out.
