I remember once seeing an item for sale at a hamfest. It was a
fairly new transceiver, IIRC. Anyway, the seller posted a price for
it which was fairly high, but then also posted that every 10 minutes
(or some interval like that) he would lower the price. And he did.
I guess it was an inverse auction... start high, and work downwards.
Anyway, after not too long.. maybe an hour, once of the interested
"lookers" caved in and bought the rig. I recall chatting with the
seller later in the day, and he said that he would have kept reducing
the price until the hamfest was over if he hadn't sold it. I guess
we'll never really know! :)
