Message:: [QUOTE="cpm9ball, post: 896354, member: 24633"]It just happened that two people wanted it so the price went crazy. The only mistake I can see that was made was the losing bidder, a***r, placed his bid way too soon. The winner, c***e, had more than 6-1/2 minutes to enter another bid before the auction closed. Since he had already bid before, you can tell that his final bid was not the max from his previous bid, otherwise, it would have posted immediately after the bid posted by the losing bidder. If a***r had been smart, he/she would have waited to hit the "Commit" button until there was only 3-5 seconds left, and the winner would not have had enough time to react. That is one of the advantages of using a sniping service. You can set your max bid days in advance and forget about it. The service will automatically enter your bid with 3-5 seconds remaining and the competition doesn't even see it coming. If the bidding should go higher than your preset max, the service will notify you by e-mail so that you can decide if you want to increase it or not. I used a sniping service for several years, but I had to quit because it was so successful (85% wins) that I was spending way too much money. Chris[/QUOTE]
