I haven't been to alot of auctions in my area so far, but enough to know who are the whales, and there are 2.
One older couple at every auction I have went to around here (GREEDY and RUDE).
I think since the 1st auction I went to that they were at, they rubbed me wrong. Since I usually am they 2nd biggest bidder there, no one else bids more than $200, I make it a habit to run them up
Where they would get really good units for $200 - $300, I have been making them pay $600- $900
At the auction Saturday I cost them an extra $1000 at least. I don't like this practice but they show us little guys no mercy, so I make them pay for everyone they want.
I think they have noticed this as they are more rude to me LOL
I get along with everyone else, and no one likes them. They own a thrift store and auction house, I think.
