Re: People ... please DO NOT bid if you have no idea what you are doing

They will end up bidding on another item for $ 80.00

In order for someone's bid to SHOW at $80.00, someone else had to have bid at least $79.00.

Was it YOU who bid the $79.00? Or did the seller send you an SCO for your max bid of $fifty-something (since you could get it elsewhere for $60)?

When all else fails, read the instructions.

They let people vote that do not know what they are doing, and bidding on Ebay is far less important

Sorry to break it to you, naysia, but the item is NOT "yours" until you actually pay for it. Anyone can bid against you. This isn't e-dibs.

You are either making an extremely bad joke, or are incredibly ignorant. The ball is in your court...

In this case, I think the avatar is a self portrait.

At eBay, we're not happy until you're not happy!!!!

Why is anyone bothering to reply to an obvious joke thread from an extremely bored and lonely poster?



Someone pass me an explanation and a tanq on the rocks please.

WOW! OP is the type of bidder auctioneers love. Determined to own it no matter what the cost. Only thing better is to have two of that type of bidder bidding on the same item.

Ahhh! Be still my heart.

LMAO!

This thread brought to y'all by the user who's answer on another thread is in bold below.

"Granny on a dial-up connection places her max bid of $30.00 on the first day of the auction that had a starting bid of $0.99.

Sue places her bid of $10.00 on the third day of the auction.

Shifty Sam uses his wizzbang "electronic sniping software" to place his $25.03 bid at 3 seconds before the auction ends.

Which bidder wins the auction?"

Wait... I'm supposed to know what I'm doing?

Aw hell, I'll never get to bid at this rate. Now I'll have to buy my freak leash and red ball muzzle at a brick and mortar store, by gum.
