In recent memory I can NOT remember any bids over $99.99, but of course, could be wrong. I did bid, a couple of years ago, $87 on a Russia #1, (what a beauty that was), but was forced to sell it for over $300 to feed my addiction for more stamps that I needed for my own collection. LOL

I sold a US Scott 1 with red cancel here for well over the $100 base

I'm certainly sorry to have missed that one.

Ken TallPines recently asked what the bidding increments were, then answered his own question by finding Tim's article on it: http://stamporama.com/articles/display_article.php?id=RA3ImQ0ZlDgPY
