    The Doug comment I didn’t understand .
    He didn’t hit last time and is one of the very few people who bid a lot at the 100 and 200 level
    One person who wins often in these contests literally bids on like 300 different items during the contest, and that’s why he wins often.
    in any event, I can look to implant something for next time that eliminates repeat winners.

    I guess I play the game wrong. I just bid on items I would like to win. Not put in 300 bids with no intention of wanting any of them just to jack the prices up to see if I can win money. Part of the fun of bidding in an auction is actually bidding and trying to win in the auction but there have been many times where I've got on to bid in the final day or so of the auction and the prices are already to high because of the contest bids 2 weeks before where the value of the item was maxed out the night of the contest so was no reason to bid.

    If you were to look back at all of the past winners, you'll see that there's about 5 people who have won more than 8 times. I do see where you are coming from. Some ppl think its rigged based off of how much someone spends or consigns to the auction house. Who knows. That being said, there is a strategic way of going about it. Knowing the market for each item, knowing when to bid during the contest, etc all comes into play. Just like anything...
