Damn you Mccm.... lol, and i did have the max bid thing set up(or for you Mobsta the proxey) i was winning with about $15.50 and my max bid (even though i was willing to go a few dollars more,) was set to $20, and that was why the guy put in 22.50, well i am assuming that is what he did... but i am over it now, just pissed me off at that moment.... back to searching for a cluster with a tachometer in it...*sigh* lol

thiers no way to report that!!!!!!!!!
lets face it... doesnt matter if the auction was been going for 2 seconds or 2 seconds left on auction.... thiers still time for another bid

and i do it all the time!!!!!!!

2windows is good but three is beter
one for constant refreshing... and YOU MUST HAVE A QUICK CONECTION>>>LMFAO
second for medium bid...
third for the HIGHEST you will bid! and as a last resort!!!!!!!

ive won quite a few auctions in the last 2seconds... thats how i got my rims and quite a few other parts ive wanted and even video games...

and sometimes ya just dont win.. cause thiers that guy thats already bid thats willing to pay more than you OR he gets caught up in the last minuite bidding and goes nuts and pays more that its worth.
then they can have it....

but the beuty about ebay is till that auction says ENDED thiers a chance you could win and a chance you could loose! just hope you got a quick internet conection and either no one saw that auction OR thier at work or away from thier computer


for my rims i didnt bid till the last 3hours first bid... and of course i had 2or 3 other people try bidding against me in the last 5mins and they outbid me... BUT im a sniper bidder myself when i realy want something!!!
i bid at the last
12:47:30 PDT ENDED
12:47:25 PDT 430 me
12:47:22 PDT 425 other guy
12:46:46 PDT 420 3rd guy


well look yourself.LMFAO
http://offer.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/...m=160004527414


almost a high when ya realy want something.. hiting that refresh button as fast as the top of the page loads!!!!! those last 5seconds realy has your heart bumping [8D]



ya could say im a bidding addict. LMFAO
its the same when im selling something.... ive thought about ending auctions early just about every time!!!!!
if ya got something people might want.. thiers two things to remember.. pay for the longest listing! 10days!!!! the more people that click that WATCH button the more last second bidders when the real bidding war starts!

ive sold quite a few things that i had a buy it now price on and people waited and instead of geting a deal on them for all i wanted originaly they end up paying more cause then thiers a bidding war on someone that realy wants it!

I dont know. Im still a fan of the 2 windows. You can wait longer with the 2 window thing having it set at your max because if thats the most your willing to pay then why have 1 bid set lower than what you really want? That just makes you bid sooner which will lead to more bid battles and a higher cost.
