No, you see this is the thing you don't seem to get. You bid 4 days early, someone outbids you by tenner because they have time to find out how much you bid.

It's not about how much you want to pay, it's about that person thinking "ooh another tenner won't hurt" whereas if they'd bid and were winning it, you can beat them and probably get it for a lower price. The whole point in ebay is that it's not exactly like a real auction because it has a time limit, and the less chance you give for someone to react to your bid, the better, unlike a real auction where the time limit is increased.

 

I would have thought that was more common sense

yeah, true, but they'd be winning it most probably with a proxy bid. So if I bid at the last minute, I still might not get it for under my max price

 

anyway, i'm a new age man, Mr Sniper bids for me these days If you cant beat em, join em.

excellent, that's the way to do it. I even have a stopwatch now for timing the last 8-12 seconds of the auction

LOL I do the same!

Well fair enough, but you suck at ebay anyway, so if anyone wanted to outbid you, all they'd have to do is bid sometime in the last 4 days
