Raymond,
The answer was and is NEVER... The item was offered for sale, not put up for
bidding, there is a difference which seems to be lost on some people.

Hi, Chip:
I've read the thread over the weekend. Maybe some of our answers will prove
useful to you. Hope so.
You simply asked a question: "Is this how it is done today?"
The answer is simple: "Sometimes. Never always. Just sometimes. Usually
rarely, but it does turn out this way sometimes."
Can you tell ahead of time if the deal is going to turn sour? No.
It is a bit like knowing when you have a job. It isn't when you show up for
work. It isn't during all the labor of doing the work, whether it is an
hour or
a week or a month.
You know you have a job when the work is done, and you get your check, and
you take the check to the bank, and you deposit it or cash it, and the
check
doesn't bounce. Then and only then do you really know you have a job.
Better experience next time.
