Bidding on Ebay! - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I want to place a bid on ebay, and the bids close in about an hour from now-- as of my current post. Should I wait and bid on the product at the last minute?

It is a LaserDisc I always wanted, and the current bid for it is about $20.00 U.S.

Yes, keep an eye on it and bid at the last minute

Mijada:

How does "Automatic Bidding" work?

Will ebay automatically out bid the last bidder to my maximum bid?

I never really out bidded anybody before, I always just buy it at the seller's request. That's why I'm asking.

Also, one more question.

There is no specification that this person will mail this LaserDisc to Canada. I hope that my bid doesn't make a big difference. Should I email him if I happen to win the auction?

Never mind!

I won the bid, and I'm a happy camper.

I try to trick the other dude and bid at the last second before the other guy can counterbid.
