There was a deal for a Dura-Ace 7700 9 speed Crankset with bottom Ultegra Bracket. It went for $50. I bid $49 in the last seconds.

Dang it. I really wanted to upgrade to that.

 

[PurdueRy]

you do realize he could have bidded much higher than $50?

 

[DaShen]

It was such a good deal though. Yeah, but in the last 4 seconds I bid $51. I just didn't hit confirm in time.

 

[spanky]

just set ur limit and stick to your guns. who is to say that the guy who won did not actually have a proxy bid of like.... $70.

edit - PR beat me to it.

 

[DaShen]

true, the crankset with bracket is a extremely good deal for $50 though.

How do you know he didn't bid $70 or something?

 

[randomlinh]

and if you did, i bet the other person probably set it at $60 or something. heh

I laugh at people like you. When I bid, and I do often snipe, but I put in my limit. Not 1 dollar more. I see these petty bids at the end and laugh.

It didn't look like it on looking at the history. The bidding was quite random.

**EDIT**
And the guy only bid within the last 2 minutes.

The bid history only reports what ebay proxy bids for you. It doesn't show their maximum bid.

 

[DaShen]

But I thought it would outbid right after your bid if there is a limit.

People who don't know how ebay works.. *sigh*

Basically he could have bid ANYTHING above your bid. You will never know. Could be he bid $1000. Unlikely, yes, but he could have. All ebay would show you is $50
