I've just recently signed up for ebay & is this shit ever addictive. I've bought 8 things so far but my favorites are:
that I got for $40 &
that I got for $20
I had these box sets on VHS tapes & have been looking for these on DVD for that last while & I'm looking forward to watching these when they arrive.
Anyway, I've noticed that on some items there is a real bidding war at the end & was wondering if anybody has some good tips to help in the bidding. It just seems like some of these winning bids seem odd & am wondering if there is a way to put an auto bid for a set amount the last few seconds of the auction.
Anyways, here's an example of the bidding. This auction ended at 20:09:40 & don't understand how the winning bidder bid 3 seconds before the second place bidder. It was the only time during the auction either of those 2 bid so I don't understand how j***y's bid even shows up unless it's because of lag.
