Searched but didn’t find a previous discussion on this topic - what is the highest number of bids for any lot in the Stamporama auction? I don’t think I’ve ever seen more than 20 or so bids, including proxies. Any amazing bidding war stories to share?

re: What was the highest number of bids on any lot in our auction?

I have only been involved in one item that ended with 11 bids on it and that was this month.

If each member goes into their "Won Lots" in the Buyers Section it lets you know how many total bids it took to win that item. In fact any member can find out who sold what to whom at what price and the number of bids placed BUT it takes a heck of a lot of work!

Edit:-

The highest number I could find in an initial search was 17 and here is that item that attracted that number of bids:-

I think I made 15 of those bids. I just needed one stamp - not the expensive one! I quit when I realized I was 2x CV!
