[QUOTE="Palifan, post: 318210, member: 4095"] I'm not even sure if it is Shill bidding some of the times as it almost seems like as soon as you bid on something suddenly other people become interested in it, maybe they feel they're missing out on something? Also I wonder if an item has an highish starting price on it if people interested in it are hoping that no one will bid on it and the seller will reduce the starting price next time around. I placed a pretty high bid on something the other day after it had no interest for days and straight away someone else bid on it. there bid was 15 pence lower than my maximum and a few hors later I won it. It was almost like they knew what my maximum bid was! I'm not even sure I even want it now and although i only paid about a fiver more than my starting bid I'm still annoyed by it as I feel the other person didn't really want it either :lol: I do feel I'm almost at the end with ebay and might change back to do things the old way by going to toy fairs ect and hunting out things. I know you don't get the same range as on ebay but there's nothing I really want that desperately any more and it might be a more fun way of getting things. Ian [/QUOTE]
