It's always a good idea to know roughly the value of anything that you are 
bidding on.  I was involved with more traditional auctions (i.e. in person) 
for years, & "auction fever" is very real.  In fact, it is often counted on 
to raise the sale price of the entire estate/lot!  I've seen situations where 
an individual bid $375 for a color TV, while the original price tag of $295 
was still affixed to it.  I guess P.T. Barnum was right!
