If there's something you want badly, use a sniping service. Set your bid and then don't worry about it. Of course you still should check the bidding once the auction's almost over but at least if you bid your absolute maximum or a tiny bit over you won't have to worry about missing something because you were busy doing something else or because you were having computer problems. You can still be outbid but like Bunny said, that's just because someone else was willing to spend more.

You open an account with a sniping service, give them your Ebay ID and password (always make sure the service you use has been recommended by people you trust) and set your maximum bid. The service bids for you right before the listing ends, usually about 5 or 6 seconds before. No bidding wars, no "forgot to check", and you can cancel any bid any time up to 5 minutes before the end of the auction if you change your mind or find out that the item is fake or the seller isn't trustworthy.

I like eSnipe, they have a free trial period and once that's over they charge a fee only on the auctions you've won. You need to set up an account to cover the fees.

Bidding is quite interesting. Many times if I hold until the end to bid, the bid doesn't go as as high. If I start high, it seems someone always has to push the limit by a little.

I've sold a bit on eBay using two accounts...one in my husband's name and the other mine.
I've experimented with beginning listings low and then hoping (fingers crossed) and then I've started some at my bottom dollar I would take. iI get a lot more watchers when I start low and let people bid up, but it's very risky, especially when it's a Coach and there is a lot of competition.

Personally, I found myself rebidding on something I want and "inching" up just to see how high I have to go to get in the lead. Yeah, it's kinda compulsive, but fun. I usually have a top dollar in mind when I play this game. Sellers like bidders like me. I drive up the price. When I'm really serious about something, I don't play this game.

It's very addicting...bidding that is. Kinda like Coaches...they're addicting too.

^It always helps me to bid from the start exactly how much Iqm willing to pay and if someone wins it for more then I rest easy knowing I tried but some are willing to spend more than I was.
