<p>[QUOTE="Hiddendragon, post: 1380645, member: 25270"]I have two methods depending on the situation: Situation 1: The coin's starting price plus shipping is already at my upper limit for that coin. In this case I'll just bid, knowing I'll probably be outbid, but I don't want to pay any more. The other time I might bid early is if I'm pretty sure it's something that only I will be interested in, so no one else should bid on it. </p><p>Situation 2: The starting price is low: I watch it and then bid with 5 seconds left. I never used to do this, but I believe it gets me the coin cheaper. I still bid no higher than I wanted to go, and if the price gets too high beforehand I don't even bother bidding. I think that if you bid too early it allows other bidders to have second thoughts and increase their bid. If you bid at the last second, they can't do that.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
