To all those who buy on ebay. DONT BID 25 TIMES 4 DAYS BEFORE THE AUCTION ENDS! It just jacks up the price for you and for everyone else and makes it so that you wont get a very good deal.

wordd! I hate that so much, I want to get something but these dumb bitches start bidding a week before its gonna end. Now I use auctionsniper.com which kicks ass and it hasn't let me lose something yet.

I also believe that some ebay sellers have double accounts in which they bid on their own items if it's not about to sell for very much.


It would be a smart move on their part.

i tried doing that once bidding really damn early to scare people away cause they would be like damn this fool wants this shit so bad im not gonna even try, but it didnt work very good. i think that people actually liked it more because they thought it was popular

my dad would have his friends bid on his shit if they didnt go for as much as he wanted them to. but some guys in texas got caught bidding on a car they were selling with thier own account, jacked up the price $5000 and the got the shit sued out of them
