I never understand why people place bids when an auction still has days left. The one, and ONLY thing that does is make the price jump for whoever wins it, it's pointless. What, so you can be the 'high bidder' for a day or two?
bid in the last minute, and if you dont go high enough, you dont go high enough, dont drive it up for everyone else.

well, a maximum bid is a maximum bid at the end of the day.. So it doesn't matter WHEN it's dropped.
Anyway, if the richest muthafucka dropped his maximum at the END, you wouldn't have a fucking chance. At least this way you got a few days to at least think of a way to get the scrilla to beat the bid. That's reality.. Or, at least you'll know that you aint fuckin with this auction.. Insteada bein all :*< like you was strung along for 7 days, upset by the end result.
I mean, correct me if i'm wrong!
dope auctions btw cashflow! I take it you didn't tell folks you was sittin on it because the attention you'd recieve and the hastle surrounding such attention!

I'm not saying you are wrong, because there are no "rules" to bidding on ebay, this is all I'm saying, and I do ALOT of ebay business (buying and selling).
All bidding does, when it's not at the last second, is drive the price up and if you don't believe that, you need to learn more about ebay.
You dont think that when some rich ass person sees that people are bidding on an item with DAYS left, that they realize alot of people want that cd (or any item for that matter), and will have a MUCH better chance of them raising their max bid to a much higher price?
That is why people SHILL BID. Shill bidding is when people get friends, or make fake ebay names, to bid on their own items long before they end, so it drives the price UP, and they sell it for alot more than it normally would go for.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not attacking you, I'm just trying to let you know that "sniping" at the end is the only way you should bid, hell, sometimes the highest bidder wont get their big bid in at the end, and you will end up winning just cause their computer/internet fucked up, or they won't have enough time to enter a higher bid.

Oh yeah no doubt with the artificial price raising statement. Even the most legitimate of sellers can be made to look bait if bidders decide to rush in high pricing waaaay before the closing hours.
Yup with eBay it's strange, cause the item is on there for 7 DAYS.. but to be honest, the days are just there to get the interest, the REAL auction is closing time, right you are. Hahah they should do that, just have it for days, to get it on peoples watchlists, then have an auction commencement time. They should at least try it out. In order for eBay to pull this off though, EVERYONE would have to know about sniper sites.
