Let's see what comes to mind. Like I say I try not to make
that many. I made one in Danville [VA] one time, [at the tobacco
auctioneer championship in Danville.] a dire mistake. Let me think of
what it was. We had several, must have been eight or ten buyers, and
say, for instance, somebody bid 75 and he said, "Wait a minute,
wait a minute, I want that." And I said, "OK, can
anybody else use it at 75?" And one other buyer said,
"I've got 65 on it." I said,
"Ok." Well the guy that originally bought it at 75
said, "Well I had 65. I just don't have
75." Well, you can always go up. But once the pile of tobacco
is yours it goes to somebody else at a lower price, you can't
come down. You can raise your pile. I made that mistake one time, in
front of about 25,000 people. I never made it again.
