Putting in your maximum bid right off the bat would have probably been more money than the local guy offered, so presumably, you would end up with the item. I've tried to play it several ways, and have come to the same conclusion as Cowman- When you see something you want, bid immediately, and put your max at what you would be willing to pay.

If you really want an item, step up to the plate and buy it.
