This is just a small rant about how retarded some (most) people who use eBay are. If the auction you are bidding on does not have a reserve price, and is not a buy it now, don't bid on it until it has only a few seconds or maybe a minute or so left!!! This is how come the bargains on ebay are no longer bargains, people dont know when to bid and it pisses me off! Popst ur comments
Sniping programs ftw ;)
Cloudy
huh?
I know when to bid...
...the very last few seconds, stealing the item from the current highest bidder.
I did that when I bought RedSteel for Wii, I bidded £22 more when there was 46 seconds left and the numptys bidding tried to outbid me which made me laugh cause they only reached £33, I love stealing items in the very last few seconds and pissing off whoever is bidding on that very item! lmao
me too, but thats the point, people always try and bid large amounts like days b4 the auction closes. It makes me mad, because they jump the prices up beyond what they need to be.
thats what ebay has become thou, if it's not the prices going sky high through people bidding high too early it's the postage...Quote:

ITEM - 0.01p (it's clearly a con since the postage is high)
POSTAGE - £44.99 (which should be £2 - £3)
Yeh like Cloudhunter said
I use Sniping programs to win the stuff on ebay
I can win every auction that i want to win, but people always jack up the price like two or three hours b4 the auction ends.
You dont even need a snipe programe anymore. Ebay installed a up to the minute clock in the pic of each item so that will make it as easy. But i do agree so schmuks bid 3 to 5 days before auction and an item that could have gone for 20 dollars goes for 50 because of them.
