THE EARLY BIDDER REWARDS PROGRAM! (http://cgi.ebay.com/Legendary-Polk-Audio-Monitor-7-Speakers-circa-1987-NR_W0QQitemZ5866428425QQcategoryZ50597QQrdZ1QQcmdZ ViewItem)

Initial thought is it will dissuade other bidders from coming in, but for common items maybe it'll goose the winning bid some.

What if you place the first low ball bid, and then after subsequent bids, you place the final winning bid? Do you still get the $10 credit?

What does Bruce do for a living anyway? Does he wander the earth like Kane in Kung Fu looking for gear? Is he just a man of lesiure?

Well, for one, instead of walking he cruises about in an old Honda. I think that our resident zenmeister/box opener would agree that's not very Zen. A nice used Beemer, MAYBE, but not a Honda. Personally, I'm no karate-man but I think the Beemer is a bit too 'eggresive'.

Don't tell anyone, but Bruce made his fortunes in Amway.

Door #3, Russ.

EDIT: And the Honda goes when I go...
