I bid early when I believe I'm not a serious contender - I seriously doubt I
will win, but if I do, I will be very happy. I consider this bidding as a lark
and just for fun.  My top bid is nowhere near what I think he will get.  You see
,part of the fun in ebay is "simply just bidding".  ;>)


Happy Bidding Regards,

Michael
