I also play and collect board wargames, and for those a major trading
center is rec.games.board.marketplace, although eBay is important too.
In non-eBay auctions, it's common to use a going, going, gone format,
with each step occuring after a couple of _days_ of no bids. That
seems a much more reasonable way to make sure that everybody who wants
to be heard from has the chance. I do like eBay's system of paying
just over the second highest bid, as it lets you bid once and then
wait until the end.
