If you don't bid more than the item is worth for you all is good. If the price get to high it is no problem to buy something else.

Hey, just to know if something as this ever happened already in here or has been caught or something...

I love to hang out @ collectibles and I have very good trust in many of the collectible guys, some of you know I do especially for my relative short period of being among you guys.

But there is something that worries me a bit and I just wanna know if there is something as this happened already or the members in here have already deal with such a problem?

Just for example the NEWS papers auction, starting bid 40BTC, not much traction, 20BTC still quiet, now starting from 0.0BTC

So we have a very nice opportunity for who wants this piece of history/investment.... But let us say the last day its still around 3.75BTC (probably maybe not) but let us say its a disappointing bid, what if the OP has an alt account or works together with some one to last bid in such case to just keep the item in his own possession or drive up the price? When trusted members bid among each other or so its probably nothing but when low activity account etc are getting in the mix, that worries me a bit.    (nothing to the OP of that auction, just an example of an expensive item, what I hope will appear more and auctioned in the safest way as possible) Smiley

Or let us say somebody proxy bid for me, I have had some guys proposing to do so for me, but how can I really trust this? (Lucky I have someone I fully trust for this) but just to know how the collectible section thinks about this and if something with wrong intentions have been caught before??

If there are any idea's as well on how we can stay save or exclude such things or .........

Just share thought and idea's how to keep this collectibles section as save as possible, there is always room for improvement, even when nothing has happened, prevention is better than cure.

(Still I don't wanna show any negativity, cause I have only been threaded A+++, just wanna see it remains this way for me and new or other users)
