I never understood people that bid early in these things. 13 days left, why you dropping a 200$ bid on a treadmill?

most real auction sites have dynamic end times so it bumps the end time if someone bids in the last xx minutes, also if you're the first to bid a value you get that spot, and the increments get larger as you go up, so often it is advantageous to bid early.

I do this always in auctions when I have zero interest.

Sweet. Will try to pick up one of those spin bikes if price is reasonable. I think they are fairly new. I remember they did a full upgrade on the bikes not too many years ago.. <5y?

Last fitness auction I bid on was absolute insanity for prices.

This was ~1 month ago.

I predict those spin bikes will all be $1200+
