I sure hope he is the originator of his own posts.

I’ve learned some things from him. I learned (pretty much) not to let others influence the amount of my bid. Decide the value of the item and the max you are willing to bid, and then place it as a snipe. Walk away and don’t change the amount. Probably best to give AS the snipe as soon as you see the auction, that way you’re less apt to be influenced by proxy bidders.

I also learned (pretty much) to never place a proxy bid. I even go one step further – don’t stomp a BIN with a proxy bid.

I think that’s part of his beliefs, and I wish I had followed his advice when he first brought it up.
