BIDDER ETIQUETTE?

  Dan Gosling writes: "In the Stack's auction catalogue of
  December 1-2, 1993, "United States Coins and Paper
  Money Featuring Additional Selections From The Reed
  Hawn Collection and Important Consignments From The
  T. D. Howe, Jr., Family Trust B, William B. Cowden and
  Dr. Bernard Schaaf", which I purchased at the Library spares
  sale during the ANA Summer Seminar this year, there is a
  list of Bidder Etiquette:

  1. List your lots in ascending numerical order whenever possible.
  2. Bid only in whole dollar amounts.
  3. Please write clearly and be sure to sign your bidsheet.
  4. Keep a copy of your bidsheet for your records.
  5. If you use a fax machine - please type to avoid misreading
      of bids.  We thank your for your support...

  Are there any other rules of etiquette for bidders?  Have other
  auction companies ever included such a list in their catalogues?
  Are there any additional rules for email bids?"
