They did this on a cattle brand at a farm sale several years ago. The guy had said to go to $5000 on the brand. Auctioneer started it at $5000 and no one else bid, so it was sold at $5000. If he would have been at the sale, probably could have gotten the brand for a couple hundred dollars, since it wasn't even a very good brand.
