I am sick of trying to get stuff on Ebay. If it doesn't have buy it now you aren't getting it. I have bid on some items from people that list 4 of the same item and the one I bid on is the only one that getting bid against. The 4 other identical items dont get bids. I'm sick of the sellers using alternate screen names to jack up prices. It would just be easier to have a buy it now price! Sorry just venting.
To all you A holes that jack up your own prices!!!! :thefinger

Only buy in the last 10m of an auction so you know if you've won it while still at the computer. Put everything you want on your item-watch list ;) :thumbsup:

I wasnt aware that this happened. I've never bid for anything on ebay yet... this isnt exactly encouraging

It happens Jay, but only if you bid early on an auction, like Oz said, you leave your bidding to the last few minutes and you're alright.
I can't keep track of how much I've spent on Ebay, but seldom have problems that haven't been resolved.

I've bid on ebay for several things and got good deals. Its like any other auction, know what you're willing to pay and don't go past that value. If someone outbids you, then good for the seller. Don't bid just to bid. Know the $$ you're willing to dish out and bidding becomes quite easy.
The people who only want to get an incredible deal are the ones who wait till the lats few minutes of the sale to try and get it. Best of luck, but that tactic doesn't work all that often.

Makes a lot of sense to me. That's how i always figured i'd do it. I guess the only way it could go wrong is if someone did the same but bid a little higher...

lol, I never bid on things on ebay, I always use the buy it now feature. Usually it's just a few dollars more with the things that I buy and I'd rather do that than go through the hassle of trying to outbid other bishes. Buy it now ownz
