<p>[QUOTE="washington, post: 334981, member: 11367"]ebay is the way it is and everybody is entitled to their opinions about it. </p><p>Personally, I try to snipe most of the time. If the auction ends late or at some other inconvenient time, I will bid before hand. When I snipe or not I put in my maximum bid. My maximum is according to my book, not the "BOOK". Sure I lose most of them. This month alone I won 15 and lost 24. And 13 of the wins were 'buy it now'. It really doesn't matter that much. There are more coins out there that I'm watching and will bid on, if it doesn't go over my max before the last 5-10 seconds. If it goes over the max 3 days before the auction ends, I delete it my watching list and note it in my book. Why do I snipe. Because it's fun and very entertaining for me. The sellers know what they are getting into and know they will make money on some and not much on others. They can always put a reserve price on their coins if they want.</p><p>Ebay is like a game.
