Bid exactly what you're willing to pay, & you can never lose - You either get the item or you let some other idiot pay more than you were willing to pay.

yes and get outbid by .01 by the guy who bid at the last minute.

You can't outbid by a penny.... there's a minimum increment to the bids.
(unless maybe someone has a proxy bid and you happen to guess how much it is and go 1 cent over)

You're the idiot. I hate snipers. I bid what i want, and just leave it at that.

you must be one of those newbies. I will have to beat u senseless if i ever meet you in real life.

LOL right... i've fought enough koreans in my life to know they're all talk.

What's your problem? Doesn't hurt you any....and sometimes you get an awesome item CHEAP...like the one I got recently...1888s Morgan Dollar MS63 for $100 😛

according to my sources, that is not really CHEAP. It would be a decent deal if it is in a high quality condition, but definitely not Cheap.

yep, too much sniping would cut into my nef-time 🙂

LOL

Aren't you that uberfucktard that crashed his 300ZX a little while back?
 
I'll bid on an auction on day 1 all the time. I bid what I want to pay (usually a big discount off what I would have to pay locally). If someone snipes me for the minimum amount to raise the bid, then they wanted it more than me.

That is what I do.

 
LOL, nice flamefest this turned into.

I haven't been on for a year (seller) or two (buyer), but I've been registered over 5 years, I've sniped been sniped and bid early. I do what ever I feel like doing so deal with it 😛

If I see something I want I usually bid early but at a low price simply so I can track it, but sometimes not it depends.
