I was a member of another online auction site (before eBay came around) that I liked their policies... it was like a true auction... if a bid was made within the last five minutes, the auction reset for another five minutes. As long as bids were being recorded within five-minute increments the auction was live.

It's the smartest way to eBay. Maybe you should learn how to be good at the internet?

I don't understand, you place a proxy bid for the most you're willing to spend and it's over. Why the drama of upping your bid?

I haven't seen a truly excellent deal on E-Bay for a few years now. Just like anything else that starts out being a real bargain, it's been ruined by overpopulation.

You damn kids...get off my lawn!!!!!

Exactly what I was thinking and the way I bid as well when I'm trying to buy something on Ebay. On the other hand, if I am bidding on sometihng, I WILL come in at the last second and snipe it.

That's the only way to bid. You're a reerun if you bid 3 days in advance, you're just costing yourself money.

no reason to even bid on an item until the last hour.


all you're doing is driving up the final price push.

Yup

I am normally the guy that comes in the last 5 seconds and tries to snipe stuff. If you got your reserve up to an acceptable level of what you are willing to pay then you got nothing to bitch about. FMB is just mad cause someone out bid him on the CHEAP to get an item in the last few seconds. I've bought shit I really didn't want before because some Schlechter Coyote (spelling?) thought he would sneak out with low azz bid.

Sorry FMB I don't feel remotely sorry for your tight penny pinching azz.

No, it wasn't being "cheap" -- that particular lens normally goes for right about what it did... I'm pissed because I don't like snipers. I don't think it's right. I think there should be provisions, like I suggested in post 2. I remember a time on eBay (and I'm only 28, so not "old" by any stretch) when people didn't snipe. It was considered bad form.

Meh, that's how the system works. Catching a good deal at the last second is what makes it fun.

I don't remember this long forgotten code of Ebay honor.
