With all the talk about ebay stuff lately I have a question about "what to do when". In this case I was watching an item for my wife's mustang and another person had a bid in on it, new ebay bidder (

And that's exactly why I hate online auctions. Tell him to pound sand. That's the auction game. Everybody bids until the last person spends all the money. If the auction were live, the two of you cou

First off thank you to all that have responded. I now fully realize I didn't do anythig wrong but being an honest person I do feel sometimes the kind of bidding called for on ebay is not always the b

David, those were Loser's tears. Let us be clear on one point: eBay is not an 'auction'. In a real auction, all of the bidders are assembled in one place to bid at the same time, with an auctioneer

David, I'm sorry to hear of the ignorant bidder that tried to slam you. Ebay's rules on bidding tells you to bid the highest you will go up front so you don't get outbid. Obviously you bid higher tha

FWIW, bidding at the last moment is known as "sniping" and there is nothing wrong/sleazy/... with it. I don't like it myself, but then I just bid my max and if I get the item, I'm happy. If not, the

Personally, I NEVER bid until the last couple of minutes. Bidding any sooner just jacks the price up. Even if you put in a 'max bid' and let their system work it for you. Someone else could also have

Depends on the situation. If it is a commodity item such as memory that I know what the value is I bid a set amount and then let it sit. I feel satisfied that the person that out bid me paid as much
