robbie Posted 12 November , 2004 Author Share Posted 12 November , 2004 I have had considerable success with sniping, although on at least one occasion there was a "computer glitch" which prevented my bid being processed. As far as the question of fairness? Well, all's fair in love, war, and bidding! Terry, Did you by any chance have a couple of successful snipes today?

robbie Posted 12 November , 2004 Author Share Posted 12 November , 2004 Another thing, whilst I ramble on: when I note the same person bidding on several lots in which I also have an interest - and I view them (subjectively) as being 'greedy' or placing a very silly, high reserve on each - I will bid on each item several times, with a slight increment for each bid (say £5-10). OOOhhh, Richard that's wicked of you... BTW: I do it, too. Robbie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew P Posted 13 November , 2004 Share Posted 13 November , 2004 From the original question it does seem that Australian medal sets are highly priced and sought after, especially Light Horse or different units such as the Australian Electrical Mining & Boring Company. There is a WW1 & WW2 set of medals on ebay at the moment to an original Anzac for $1250.00 Australian dollars. No bids on it yet though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbie Posted 13 November , 2004 Author Share Posted 13 November , 2004 Amazing, Andrew. Could you please post the link to this listing? Can't seem to find it. Thanks mate. Robbie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew P Posted 15 November , 2004 Share Posted 15 November , 2004 Sorry Robbie. I think it must have finished on Saturday. Last time I looked there were no bids on it so it might make another appearance in the future. It was for a Lt Wadsworth who served at Gallipoli with the 4th Bn & I think with South African forces in WW2. Cheers Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
