[QUOTE="coppertop5150, post: 1148808, member: 28147"]sometimes it's just best to set a price you want to spend and just enter a autobid .Your finally bid will only be a dollar above the last bidder..... Alot of times I have tried to snipe auction last second and lost the auction. I have seen as much as 21 bids being placed in the last 15seconds of a auction... when everyone sets a highest bid and the autobidding kicks in your bid gets left behind alot of times if some many bidders on in the auction and the time runs out. remember the person who entered the autobid first even if its a tie wins the auction. Say if auction was at 50$ and the bidding went to $65 and you bid $100 your auto bid would have kicked in won the auction at $66 dollars if the bidding went to $101 dollars does not matter becuase your highest price you wanted to spend was $100 and the auction would not have won by you ether way it as out of your spending range. But had you entered 100 and it was atie it would have gone to you Everyone has a stratigic plan when it comes to buying. I have found that when people list a group of coins with little discriptions and no details you can find a real jackpot.(just like auction you mentioned) Type in the search engine some like " coin lot " or something vauge. You would be surprised how many people really have no idea what coins they have or the value.[/QUOTE]
