Bid snipers

[mixxamike]

Ok, who's a bid sniper out there? Call me a nerd but I kinda like the rush that comes with outbidding someone at the last minute. Its also a pleasant suprise if you're a seller when you find out that your items went up $30 in the last 2 minutes of your auction.

[ALTRNTV]

It's only good when you're not the one who got outbidded! Haha

[sncs14]

gotta do what you gotta do to get what you want

[420sx]

yea. it takes patience, dedication, willpower, precision and care of duty. cary on soldier

[Ritz S14]

Hell yeah, I manually bid snipe!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! whooot

15 seconds left
My heart starts beating hard
Palms starts to sweat
Heart starts to beat faster
I start to open 3-5 bidding windows
First bid I place, I bid under, close window, and go to next window.
Win
Celebrate..bhwhahaha

[blue109]

i wont even place a bid until theres 3 seconds or less left. i wish i could see the face of everone that refreshes their browser, expecting to see that big green CONGRATULATIONS, and gets the red X instead. i love it.

[SochBAT]

and then you realized you bought a $10 item, with 35 bucks shipping.

Then Sniping pwns you.

[publicenemy137]

that's why you check the shipping price before you bid

Hahaha. I'm gonna do that.

[zenki240sx]

lol..sounds fun, i dont have an ebay account 8)

[mjjstang]

you guys are pussys, I snipe with 5 seconds left. and my auctions go up usually about 50 bux in the last minute.

[wootwoot]

I just hunt down the people who outbid me. Sit outside there house with a 3030 until the time comes to blast their annoying asses.

[Ritz S14]

Hahaha. I'm gonna do that.

Only time that fails if when the item is worth like $250, and the highest bid is $115, but the maximum bid is like $200, and you bid 120-190..then you just pwn yourself, and you become a jackass to the highest bidder. :mrmeph:

[sr240mike]

Anybody bid in 67 cent increments to find out the other bidders max bid?

[that180guy]

i love being a jack ass to those auto snipe highest bidders.
they like take the fun outta the game.

[Mervyn]

Whats a "Bid Sniper"? Sounds like a term from eBay..

[mC_YoTo]

Anybody bid in 67 cent increments to find out the other bidders max bid?

i always try a penny.

[mixxamike]

a bid sniper is someone who waits till the VERY last seconds of an auction before he places a bid, usually beating out every other poor soul who placed an earlier bid leaving no time for them to place a higher bid.

^^^lol, i thought i was the only person who felt that way.

[BSPerformance]

Thats how I bid, but I got outbid with 3 sec left! I bid 4 seconds to early man was I pissed

[liv2drift045]

its the only way to bid...what really sucks is when u plan to do that but then u fall asleep only to wake up and see the auction over and the sale price is thru the floor (just happened to me yesterday) :(

[infinitexsound]

like getting 1 dollar bushings... PUuuuahahhahahahha classic

[Phlip]

Like me watching my steering wheel hub on my MOMS Ebay account and then going to work and IM'ing her to snipe it when the auction is winding down, then having an HKB hub for 16 bucks

[SimpleSexy180]

and then you realized you bought a $10 item, with 35 bucks shipping.

Then Sniping pwns you.

yeah man that shipping is bs! probably 80% of the items on ebay are like that

[Nan Desu Ka?!]

HKB hubs are crap... i got one for like 13.50 and it still wasnt worth it. it just feels like a POS. I ended up tossing it in my trunk and coughing up the 60$ to get a MOMO. i dont regret it at all. man up and pay the money for a MOMO, you will thank me later. it just feels sooooo much more solid. i wouldnt trust my saftey to poor quality.

just my 0.02

also, bid sniping is the ONLY way to Ebay. ;) also A+ for bidding $0.01 over the current price on a "buy it now" item. i.e. item is 13.99 current and 14.99 "buy it now" and at the last second you bid $14.00 so you can save that extra 0.99. damn im a cheap bastard.

[420sx]

theres no point to bid 0.01. its just fuckin stupid. I always proxy bid. so u will be sitting there trying to up it. hah. go ahead and bid the max price u would pay for it

[DriftGirl]

gotta do what you gotta do to get what you want

how is saving money stupid on a buy it now item??? also, the part i bolded makes nooooooo sense, whatsoever. please learn grammar and try again.

what makes no sence????????? making a bid at 0.01 incriments??? while i proxy bid for a 100 bux more?? just makes no sence. incriments of say 20 bux make more sence for larger items.

oh and dont tell me to learn grammar since i was trying to make multiple posts at the same time so obviously i made a mistake. so you just have to tell me i suck at english? i bet it makes you feel a better man, right?

i corrected 1 word and it should make sence. i was gonna put "add" instead of second "and" but i went ahead and changed it to "bid". its a basic mistake dickhead. :mepoke:

[parker]

i always place my max price, if i get out-bid then oh well more power to you.

Hell yeah,I think you can get better deals doing that. Because if someones willing to spend an extra $30 ,but their too slow to get the bid in...hey hey!

if you had read my first post, i said i bid 0.01 more on BUY IT NOW items... not normal items so your argument is null and void from the get-go.

also, it was not "obvious" you had multiple windows up when you made the mistake. how the shit should i know you had multiple windows open at the time?

only reason i pointed this out was because you 1) didnt read my post correctly and 2) not knowing what the hell you were talking about jumped at the chance to try and flame me.

[420sx]

i wasnt trying to flame you. i misread you post just like you misread mine. no harm no fault.

[Nan Desu Ka?!]

*shakes hands* no harm no fault indeed.
