HEAVY statue of a GERMAN SHEPPARD ? in bronze finish - eBay, Bronze, Sculptures, Carvings, Art. (end time 27-Jul-08 19:10:38 AEST)

This lovely figure of a Rex type heavy cast metal statue has a lovely bronzed patina finish. It does not bear any foundry marks or signatures to date this by, but it is a superb casting well sculpted. It is VERY heavy for its size. The finely carved figure has a lovely face with bright eyes and open jaw…perhaps looking out for his master? It is mounted on a shaped stepped rectangular base and would be an ideal gift or paperweight for the dog enthusiast.

Bidding Tip:
More and more I am getting complaints from buyers saying that they really wanted my item but were outbid in the last few seconds. They were 'sniped'. Sniping means placing a bid in the closing seconds of an auction.

There is a way to protect yourself from snipers and prevent being outbid at the last moment. If you bid the absolute maximum you are willing to pay, ebay's proxy system will do the work for you.

Human nature sometimes makes us resist making the highest bid within our spending limits, but proxy bidding does work. There is a common misconception that snipers always win. The truth is that they don't. To win, they must outbid you. By placing a proxy bid at your maximum limit, someone else can outbid you only if they are willing to spend more for the item than you are.

If someone places a last-second bid that isn't high enough, they almost never have enough time to get back in and place a winning bid before the auction ends.
