Re: Bracelet for 1960s Carrera: Sold at $2,011

: I expected this one to go for big bucks, but am shocked to see
: it break the $2,000 mark --
: http://www.ebay.com/itm/350517476369

: Also notable are the approximately 35 bids within the last two
: minutes of the auction, by the winning bidder, including 8 in
: the last 11 seconds above the amount of the winning bid --

: Note that without the winning bidder's participation, it would
: still have sold for $1,486.

: So is this a new type of sniping software? More interestingly, how
: are we valuing these bracelets right now?

I was very much surprised about the final winning bid, at first I was suspicious about the seller’s location but the bracelet looked genuine. Considering I recently purchased a couple of the bracelets at a lesser condition but still under $1000.00 each, maybe I did get a good deal after all.
