Re: O/T: Why do people bid so early on ebay?
It seems to me like it's just an example of how expensive it can be to not think things through. For smaller items, an early bid probably doesn't affect the price too much since there may only be one or two other bidders out there that are interested in it. But for these bigger items, I think bidders are just sucking money out of their own wallets by bidding early--and especially with the early, incremental bidding. It just seems like one-ups-manship to me...

Re: O/T: Why do people bid so early on ebay?
I know Cano has not won a MVP or a World series yet(2009), but Cano is over all the better player. He has better range at second,morepowerful arm, more power, can hit for a higher average, drives in more runs. Also Dustin should not have won the MVP last year. He did not led the league in home-runs, average, RBI's, runs. I think all he had was hits and maybe doubles. And cano should have won ROY in 2005.

Re: O/T: Why do people bid so early on ebay?
I'd love to have a good baseball argument with you but i don't think you're willing to see the other side- Pedroia led the league in runs, doubles and tied for the lead in hits- 5th in overall batting average. Based on voting Pedroia was the clear mvp(16 of the 28 1st place votes- no one else had more than 7). As for defense, he won the gold glove. Please tell me 1 thing that Cano has done better than Pedroia. Cano's a nice player but has done nothing to separate himself from his peers at his position.

Re: O/T: Why do people bid so early on ebay?
Maybe this whole Cano/Pedrioa thing is an example of another reason why people tend to bid early: they see something from their favorite (or one of their favorite) players, and it's kind of like an impulse to want to bid on it.
