<p>[QUOTE="coinnewbie01, post: 334693, member: 12176"]sniping is a part of ebay, i do it myself, not thru a 3rd party. but listen to what you are saying. "if a bid comes in in the last minute, i might be willing to pay a little more." there is your problem. you arent even bidding your maximum. if you know a coin books $15 bucks, and its a little harder to get like you had suggested, and you put in a bid of $15 bucks and you get out bid with out a chance to bid again, its your own fault. i am not trying to put you down, but it seems you are trying to win every auction on the cheap. sometimes it happens and you win it cheap, but the majority of the time, you will lose because people are willing to pay more than you. set your maximum bid, if it goes for more than you were willing to pay, then you move on to the next auction. you now know what people are willing to pay for that item and you can adjust your bid accordingly. just set your maximum, and more often than not, you will come out ahead.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
