Ebay auctions always jump in price in the last few seconds, as folks try to win the item you want for the least amount of money! It's frustraing, as a buyer, to place a bid on an item, watch it for days, just to see it slip away in the last few seconds of the auction. Also, have you ever noticed that auctions that have a bid always get MORE bids? As a buyer, if there is an item out there that you want, and there are no bids on it, I am sure you have noticed you are better off waiting until the lat few seconds to bid, instead of bidding early. There is something in the human psche tha says... "Someone else wants it...it must be good... I should bid too". You also have the same problems the rest of of do - a busy life that precludes being able to log in a the exact time that an auction ends, and bidding in an amount that will let you win. There is a way around this - auction sniping programs. I have been buying on Ebay since 1998, and they have been one of the biggest parts of my business since I first discovered them. You can find them by using your search engine of preference using keyword auction snipe. These programs, for a small fee, will use the auction number and the largest amount you would be willing to pay, and will automaitcally bid on the auction for you, in the last few seconds of the auction. You just need to log in to see if you win! I win way more auctions than I lose. I love bidding this way, as the auction can end in the middle of the night, and I can still bid. I can be on vacation, away on business, or at work, and still win! These programs are, for the most part, sure-fire. This is usually all they do, and they can snipe most all auctions, not just Ebay, although Ebay is the largest part of what they do. It is very simple, and they are user friendly. They all function pretty much the same way, so pick the least expensive. My business, since 1999, has consisted of buying on Ebay, and then reselling... on Ebay. I have to buy low, or my business makes no sense! Most of these programs cost pennies per auction, so pick one, and give it a try.
