Just made my first e-bay bid... babee, that cd is mine biatch!! :) |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
which one? |

neverending story soundtrack... lol... :) |

just a question though... there was one bid there already at like 4.00, and so I set my max bid for 10.00... then it said my bid was like 8:49 or something... I thought when you set your max, e-bay would automatically just increase your bid by the minimum increment (which was like 25 cents or something) until it reached the max... why did it jump to 8.49? |

Check out the "e-bay sucks" topic, Funk. |

The more the price goes up the more the increment goes up |
||||||||
|

PLus if another person has et their limit to 7.99 and you stick your limit at 10.00 and there is a .50 increment it will jump straight to 8.49 init... |

oh, is that how it works? Maybe you're right... shrug, this is my first try at using it... I just figured that the current bid was at 4.00, and the increments were like 25 cents, so if I set my max to 10.00 my first bid would be 4.25, and would increase by 25 cents over the current bid up to my maximum... hmmm... not that I really mind anyways, it's only a few bucks, but still... |
||||||||

|
|
yeah, that makes sense... but the current bid was 4.00... I don't see the increments increasing so dramatically to over twice the current bid... :) |
||||||||

yeah, that does make sense though... if someone sets there limit to 7.99, then e-bay will automatically increase their bids too, so setting the current bid to 8.50 would eliminate that person... yeah, that must be it... |

I've never used ebay but I can't see it working any other way. |

Heheh, yeah that's it! You confused me for a bit there. |

the ebay FAQ explains proxy bidding well |

i thought it automatically raised with 50 cents or so, so when the price is 3,50 and you want to pay no more than 5 you should set you max on 5,05, or 5,10 in case some other fucker is just as smart as you, that's how i win, dont forget you have to pay for the shipping too |
