But its not. An intelligent bidder who currently snipes would look at this change and realize now its back to the way it was before sniping....
OTOH, people like me would simply stop Ebay altogether if they made those changes, since I have no desire to sit around on Ebay bidding. So, they...
Really? Looks like a really nice 85 to me. :D
Maybe they do sir, IDK I guess. I have been buying via sniping on Ebay for about a decade or so, maybe 100 auctions a year I win, and I have never...
Detecto, Conder is right. Nearly every public library will have this, and if not they can borrow one for you. I would seriously recommend you...
I wasn't even objecting to that sir, which I agree is illegal. I am just saying it happened to me many, many times where someone, (let's assume my...
