Honest auction?? really??? If you bought and sold at hundreds of auctions annually over many years like I did and had to do it for a living you gain a different perspective. Sure, I like honest and live my life that way but I have no control over the auction or auctioneers or the owner or all the other bidders and most of what goes on sort of "goes with the territory" IM NOT SAYING ITS RIGHT OR WRONG OR DEFENDING IT MIND YOU only sayin. Its sort of like "if you cant stand the heat get out of the kitchen" or the old WC Fields line "You cant cheat an honest man" lol
Its not the oldest profession, but auctioneering has its methods and means but if you did it for a living and learned all the tricks of the trade you learn to live with it (NOT saying its right or wrong) and learn to pay what its worth to you not one cent more and be done with it. Then let all the other rookies or crooks do as they think they have to, just take care of yourself and run your own business in an honest fashion and give good service and you can make it despite all the pitfalls of auctions......

But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
