Y'all ever buy stuff of ebay and bid at the last minute and take it from someone? Just ondering about that, I have had it happen to me a few times and I have done it to others a few times too.

Wonder if we ever do it to each other....

Yeah.

Everytime I buy something I wanna ask on here if someone else was trying.. But I wouldnt wanna **** anyone off. haha

 

thats the beauty of cable modems. yes i have been known to do it a time or two. but hey it happens to everyone.

Was bidding on a pair of pants and lost with 15 seconds left. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/img] Seller had an Ebay store and I wound up paying three dollars more than winning bidder.

 

I downloaded a program that places the bid with like 2 seconds left

 

Yup, I do it all the time. When you do that, you're called an "Ebay sniper"

 

i dont know if you guys know it or not,but you can bid say like $50 and have it raise the bid like $5 untill it reaches $50,that way you dont have to watch it as much[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

 

Sniping is half the fun of eBay. I have a cable modem also. Usually bid with around 7 seconds, takes about 3 seconds for the page to refresh so I'm in about 3 seconds from the end.

 

i just bid the max i would pay and let nature takes its course.
