EBay

[bomberfc]

Has any1 ever sniped on an item tht you bidded on,doesnt it annoy you. Yesterday there was a cheap video game on EBay . So i bidded on it.I checked it today and it had only 18 minutes left it was my first bid and i wanted this game so bad but i didnt want to pay like $30 for it,because i hadnt played in like 10 years and didnt remember about it.So i waited and when it had 1 minute left i thought i had it i got up and i was dancing i checked on it like a 1 minute later and i saw thought some1 had brought it for 25 cents more then i bidded it for.I was really sad and i doubt ill bid on Ebay again.

Off topic : I think this should belong in Off topic , not in video games and consoles as not everyone will bid on a video game ;)

 

 

 

On topic : Thats a really sad story and something similar happend to me , I was buying a cheap usb flash stick (32 GB !) for an awesome price , i almost had it but then someone bids 10 cents (wtf) more and got it.

 

 

 

I saw it to late so i couldn't bid more

Well, they got it fair and square, you can't complain, their bid was still valid and in time.

[Star_Fox]

well you didn't want to pay 30 bucks for it... what do you expect?

[sephiroth_king]

I call this post an example of Karma...

 

 

 

You were winning the bid, and started dancing at the last minute, and Karma thinks to herself, "Huh, he's dancing, instead of being vigilant about the bid. n00b haxx0r $h@ll pay lol!1" And so to be a [bleep] she decides to get someone else to snipe you, saying "lol pwnt!" Curse you Karma!!!

 

 

 

Nevertheless, just go to Gamestop or where ever and buy used games there, or go the whole nine yards and pay the entire $30...That, or next time be more vigilant.

Not Ebays fault. It's your reward for being cheap.

That's how you successfully bid on Ebay

[limpbizkit]

Thats why I always put the max I'm willing to pay before adding P&P in as a bid.

I'm pretty sure you cant get 32gigs on a flash drive.

You lost on eBay :lol:

 

 

 

Don't count your chickens before they've hatched. Never happened to me because if I was competivly bidding against someone, I give up because I don't wanna' end up spending an outrageous amount for whatever item it is.

It's happened to me before, but ebay does actually have some skill to it (wtfbbq?)

 

 

 

If I was you, put a bid on to start with, then get another bid, maybe a pound/dollar ahead of the current winning one, and then get it ready

 

when the timer is about to run out to stop the bidding, place the bid really quickly, easy wins :D

 

im sure many people can explain it alot bettter thoughh :)

That's actually the smaller version; Kinston makes 64 GB ones too, and is working on 128 GB. :shock:
