There is harm in this - to other bidders who
approach the auction with a bit more integrity. You are driving up the
cost of the item for no other reason than your own amusement.
What utter nonsense. When a seller starts bidding on a lens at $25
that everyone knows will go for more than 10 times that amount, there
is no harm in bidding $50 to see how the auction goes. Those who
aren't at their computer in the final 15 minutes, don't really want
the item anyhow. If you can't deal with the reality of how ebay
works, don't shop there. Whinning here does no good.
