Peter... I think there are as many strategies for winning auctions on eBay as there are people trying.
Something that's worked for me recently is to use a sniping service; I'm using "auctioninsights.auctionstealer.com", but I don't think they're better than the competition. There are plenty of options out there. If you don't like the idea of sniping, then simply bid the maximum that you can afford (and you think is fair for the item) and never look back. In the past, I lost out to snipers when I tried to get a "good deal". Tim On 11/22/04 9:18, Peter Smekal wrote: > Hi all, slightly OT maybe, but what do you think is a good eBay-strategy: > 1.
