I forget what it's called but when you bid you can bid a max, and eBay will automatically raise your bid each time you get outbid up to your max...
I put money on a Julius Jones jersey with like 5 secs left and I got beat. How is that possible....someone bet with like 2 secs or something?![]()

It's called "sniping" (for the first question).
Also, your bid may have already been auto-bid (for the second post) ahead of yours, so as you bid, the auto-bid took over for somebody who might have bid more.
There are some auto-snipe programs that bid in the final seconds as well.
Bas , I was pretty in pissed. Because I made a timer and I did it with like 5 secs left. I bet $64 and it said you have been outbid and then it was too late for me to bid again and I lost, the other guy had got it for $65![]()
Alright I put my max bid at $64 for this other.
Right now Current big is :$49.99
So say someone bets $53, mine will go to $54 automatically?
Excellent. I hope I get itI have been wanting the jersey for awhile now.
Just keep an eye on the bid...you could have someone come in at the last few minutes put in a larger amount for the bid. Say that you are high bidder with item currently at $25.00 and you have a max bid set at $30.00. Someone can can in and put a bid for $50.00 in the last few minutes left, the item will go to them for $30.50
I you knew this already...I apologize for assuming you have limited expirience with EBAY.
Yeah. I put my Max bid kinda high so I hope I will get it.
Good luck with the bidding...I just got tix to Friday's game via Ebay...
Good luck getting actualy getting them in your hands!
I just posted mine for Friday about 5 minutes ago...![]()

I've sold & bought tons of tickets and other things through ebay and never had a problem....I've got 100% positive feedback, and don't mess with anyone less than 98%...at least I don't.

Me, too. I have bought a bunch of stuff, all kinds of stuff. All kinds of sports memorabilia items (all sports, football, basketball, baseball, hockey, NASCAR, boxing), lots of "awareness" merchandise (particularly breast cancer awareness), camping stuff, one of those desktop mini-refrigerators, charms for the stainless steel Italian charm bracelets (you can get some steals on those) and all kinds of other jewelry, books, CDs, DVDs, collectible toys. I've only gotten a couple of things that I didn't think were worth what I paid for them, and I've been doing this for about 5 years.
You just have to decide what the maximun amount is that you are willing to pay for something and do not go higher than that.
I set up my seller's account a long time ago, but I have not sold anything on eBay yet.
www.auctionstealer.com is a good FREE site trying to steal auctions at the last second.. i think esnipe is too
I just bought the George Gervin Swingman Jersey for $70 + $10 for shipping! Woooo! The same jersey I put a bet for, some other dude wanted it and it got shot up to like $86 + $12 for shipping. So I got a deal out of that. Sucks for that other dude![]()
Beautiful![]()
Sometimes (actually, frequently), the seller on eBay will send you an email after the auction ends and offer you a "second chance" on the same item (when they have more than one item onhand) for the amount of your final bid, even thought the auction went higher than your final bid. I have gotten several great items like that, one NASCAR jacket for about $30 less than the auction price!
That's GREAT, Horry_For_3!!! Congratulations, beautiful jersey!
niiiiice!!!

Congrats on the jersey I got a Gervin All-star throwback off Ebay. But dangit somebody keeps jacking the Spud Webb jersey when I bid on it![]()
As said, only buy from people who have super high ratings, and not alot of negative feedbacks.
I saw some Spud Webb jerseys on there the other day. The Mitc & Ness ones. That throwback Hawks jersey looks bad ass.
Yeah the guy I bought from only had like 2 which was from 12 months ago. He never had any the past 6 months and his rating is 99.9%. So I should be good to go.
