I buy about half of what I buy off of eBay. Most of what I buy isn’t “time sensitive” either, that is, I don’t need it RIGHT then. I use a sniping program (Last Minute Bidder) and put in my absolute highest I want to bid in the program and never look back at the auction page. The program will bid at the last 5-10 seconds of the auction with whatever you put in your max price at. Sometimes I win, sometimes I don’t… but whatever the outcome I never put in any more money so I don’t end up wasting any. It’ll usually take two or three auctions for me to win at my price but I almost always do, getting a tremendous deal.
