So, who do you stalk?

I think I cover the usual suspects - resellers/collectors etc, as well as a few UK guys who I'm just interested in what they buy!



Is watching someone elses bidding considered bad form? (I guess that many are using sniping software anyway so it's possibly quite moot).



As a kick off here's a chap I watch - he's had a few bits off me in the past and seemed like a decent fella, but to say he had a dwarf obsession would probably be the understatement of the year!!!

You can never have too much of something you didn't need in the first place.

I stalk lots of people but mainly the suspects who I end up bidding against for nonTSR D&D stuff: malfrick2, eyeofvecna, lofenloc, thefantasymuseum, theshield2000.  Those are the ones that come to mind for now.  There used to be others like mbassoc and deadlord but they haven't been buying much lately.  

Most of them have moved to sniping tactics but I mainly stalk to find out what items they have bought because identifying new items is half the battle.  I usually take a look at what they have bought about once a month - Ebay is time consuming enough without tracking 5 other peoples purchases :)

Its also sometime nice to take a look at the deals bclarkie has picked up.

Just had a bidder with zero feedback bid on an item I have listed that only had one other bid which was from an Acaeum member (thanks!).



I used the "stalker search" on him and am not sure what to make of this bidder "yaquolleckr". He just created the account yesterday July 17th.
