I've never quite understood it, but it seems like a fairly popular approach. I kind of see that they're just speeding up the inevitable, but surely at some point you end up overpaying by 10+ tokens if no-one else is really interested.

I tend to watch the bidding and not bid until about 5 seconds to go (if it hasn't gone crazy by that point).
If I see someone do that I bid right after them just to annoy them!
One day I'll get caught and actually have to buy the player but so far they've always bid again whenever it's happened.
