i just got this answer from a real person at eSnipe:
The problem was that when you updated your bidding password on one of our
servers our system did not update your status on our alternate server. I have
done this for you now. eBay has verified your bidding information on both
servers and
i don't know what is an RL auction. there are many types of auctions. this
eBay system is one of the common ones.
each auction i have ever been to has had a set of rules, but there does not
seem to be a standard set of rules.

Hi friends
I have been looking for new MOBO to umpgrade my computer. But, many
of them have only two PCI slots. Is this a new trend?
I have my four (perhaps five slots in use in my old computer...)
How to I handle this?
Many thanks
Marcio
a lot of the services that required PCI slots are now contained on the MOBO, so
the makers do not think you need 4.

it looks like you can use the additional filters on the left side to look at
mb's with at least 4 pci slots.
rasmus.com has the 5 minute extension.
but while at it, why not complain about the minimum next allowable bid being to
large or small. in most online auctions that i have seen, the next allowable
minimum bid gets larger as the price goes up.

Ebay's system is the way it is. I would not want it to change, as I
do not want to sit there watching bidding all the time.
Snipe systems allow you to last second bid and possibly get an item
for a better price.
Too often I have seen an item I would like get snatched from me as I
had a bid
What an interesting response. Sometimes I forget I'm living with a

never even been to a Real Life auction. They think the Ebay way is the
way auctions work.

Having been to a few earl life auctions I know how they work.
Ebay is not to simulate a real life auction. It is an auction venue.
If you are going to knock it come up with another site that is as
popular and makes as much money as theirs does.

i should also point out to you that a very large number of these
auctions end at 9 or 10pm..pacific time. i am a very elderly

eBay already lets you enter a maximum price, but the winning bid is set by
the second highest price plus the auction's increment.

I want to replace my boot hard driver for a new one. I used to know
how to do this without having to buy Norton Ghost.
But I only do this once in three years.
Any place I can read on how to do it?
Many thanks

can you tell us if you've ever been to one where the
auctioneer used a timer and whoever placed the last bid before the
bell rang won the item? Even if other people were bidding?

The program and audio files normally reside on my computer. After
having to reinstall the operating system again, I would like one less

of losing the files by having a backup. Plus my wife would be able to

AFAIK, there is no portable version of itunes so it has to be installed on
any system you use it on. You don't need your audio files on the same drive
as itunes...I keep mine on a esata drive so i can move it between systems.

Agreed. I always search for a good price from a source other than eBay,

There are two things to be said however. On eBay, running up the price
just seconds before the auction closes is a way of getting a better
price than one could by bidding earlier with a high bid in the hope that
other bidders will not exceed that bid by successive bidding.

I've found that it's sometimes better to look at another man's
junk and make an offer than to bid for another man's treasure.

I do some upgrades though Ebay.
I try not to buy phones from the cell company. Every now and then we
upgrade when they have a deal. But otherwise we have bought and sold
phones on Ebay.
Some electronic equipment is OK too. I usually buy last years model
