don't you hate those people who wait till like 3 minutes before the auction ends to bid. Obviously such people get thinsg cheaper but as a seller or a competing bidder its annoying. I have my synth up and only 1 bid but 14 watchers, i can see them skulking around waiting to not give me much money :(

No, youve never managed to win an auction, because your top price was too low. Had you put your highest bid higher, you would have won, but you didnt want it that bad.

that's because they're not sitting waiting around to make a last minute bid, they're using software or service to 'snipe' for them.
which simply means that you should do the same - it's all within the rules of eBay.

whats annoying is when you want something for a good price but rookies start a bidding war with days left so by the time it sells the price is shit.
last minute bidding with sniping software is not fair, but just waiting for the last 10 minutes before you start bidding is the only sensible way to use eBay in my opinion
