Hey.... thats a lot cheaper than $450.....
that I've been quoted and seen people buy at that price...

Best of Luck...

remember that the HIGHEST BID Aways WINS.....

You CAN Bid $300 for an item at $50 just minutes away
from the end....
and You WILL WIN.... as other bids will be $60 - $70 usually

Just Bid the Maximum AMOUNT a minute or so away from the end of the Auction.....
Don't bid $5 - $10 over the winning amount....

as You can get beat..... and then there is NO more time to bid

Best of Luck

Be careful with what 68autobug just suggested as you can quickly see if i bid $300 over what it was worth to win and you bid $350 you would quickly be paying $301 more than you need to for an item that may be worth heaps less. Ebay will auto bid for you.

Just remember a bid is a contract.

The idea is good though and i have used it but just be careful.

TIP - Don't bid at ALL till the last 5-10 seconds and then your highest price. I have a 95% success rate with this. They don't even know your coming. Oh bugger, now don't bid on anything I want guys and grrrrls!

go to e-snipe and regisiter then you can snipe what ever you want at the last second (as long as you are the highest bidder of course).
