Being as i use to do eBay quite a bit in the past....if you really want something, but you're not willing to sit with it and get the last bid in...bid high. But, there are some programs out there that will automatically bid up to a certain point for you...i don't know about those.

That's the way auctions work. It can be a p*sser but that's auctions. I used to get hateful email because i won something over them...well, they shoulda had a higher bid.

One time, i just happened on the auction and bid during the last seconds....hate e-mail because i outbid them at the last second...wasn't even trying to snipe, just there at the last minute or so. There'll always be another item up for bid like it, sooner or later.
