May I join the odd club? I have never bid a round sum amount, ever.0

Nope we're not odd - we're sensible MSE'rs!
I always bid a few pence over the maximum amount i'm willing to bid to as you can bet that most people will bid to exactly £10 or £500 or whatever so if i go in at £10.12 or £501.38 i'm much more likely to win.0 -

I don't know why I think this but I reckon these are two of the most favourite odd amounts. There are certainly some that many folk appear to use. As a matter of interest I'm a 26p and a 56p person unless I think someone has rumbled me...;)0 -
