I haven't had a chance to make a detailed analysis but there are some strange winning bids here: Rommel Staff car for $217 (what a deal!) but the 3 Sitting GIs for $183. That's a strange one. Hard to get that one to break $100 on ebay.

Monty,
What's hard to figure out is who is doing the bidding and wherefrom. The problem with Live Bid is you don't know the identity of the bidders, like ebay. From ebay, even if we don't know people's names, we know where they are located. The bidding is too anonymous to suit me. Also, the system should be a lot more like ebay.

All fair points as usual
In response from K&C UK though. LIVEBID is a very european based auction area. We had mainly Brits win along with a Spanish chap. A couple of our green isle chums early doors as well!
Re trying to make it like e-bay - We have had a mass of feedback to try and NOT make it like e-bay (again mainly the Brits and fellow EEC guys!). The keeping the names off etc is again from feedback. We do have a monitor system that we have to show fair bidding if we were to be investigated. As i said before Brad bend dad's ear (mike) about it in NY. We have always passed your feedback onto our IT guys, so all feedback is well apreciated.
We are having a little gap between the last one and the next one (a request from a client) to recharge his Credit card lol Also gives time to seak out new K&C booty.
All the best
Tony
