Unfortunately, you are right on the money there, Verne. Seems like eBay gets screwier by the week.

Honestly though, I've NEVER seen this happen in the past and I've been the high bidder on several hundred auctions since 1999 and many of my bids have been placed in the last couple of seconds!--FWIW.

Vern, pretty sure you fell short up against one of those E bid sits, that's how there bids come in, someone had there bid set higher than yours.... I use esnipe or something like that cuzz comcast can hang on me so I set my max bid and forget about it. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif[/img]

OK. OK. I can accept that. I surely am no expert on how these things work, or not!

OR what I do. I what until the last few seconds, have my bid ready of what I am willing to spend and push the button right at the end. This happens a lot on popular items. A lot can happen in 7 seconds.
