All of us enjoy a good auction and have seen strange things happen just wondered if you guys would share an experience. Here's one of ours.
Years ago We (Dad, Brother and Me) went to a good sized farm auction looking to buy a drag blade. The three of us got together and decided how much we wanted to spend and who was going to do the bidding. I was chosen and when it came time Dad and brother were standing behind Me. Well when the bidding started I got the auctioneers attention and was bidding with a wink. As the price was going up and getting close to our limit I had been noticing that the auctioneer was getting bids right behind Me. So I turned around and asked my brother if he saw who was bidding against us. Dad speaks up and says "it was Me, You weren't bidding and I didn't want to miss it". We got it but I have often wondered how much cheaper it could have been bought.
