Well generally in my experience it doesn't work tremendously well because people put their max bid which is usually something ridiculous and it automatically bids for them.

I have no other option m8, besides shelling out double on Amazon or buy it now.

Most people don't do that untill later, because that's how you cause early bidding wars and inflate your price.

DeChief has gotten a few items from eBay by sniping. I'm not sure if it works so well with greater competition than 20 year old games that 8 people still care about, but hey.

You have to have guts and wait for the 5 second mark. I've seen people jump the gun at 15 seconds and then I come in and ruin their day.

Confirm. And make sure you logged in recently, or it will send you to the login page to reconfirm.

I would have wished you luck, but the leprechaun I drugged and tied up to send to you turned out to be a midget. I am now banned from the four leaf mini-mart.
