WTH? How I getting outbid (on eBay) when I'm submitting my bid at the 1 second left mark? - Stephen Apr 12, 18:56 20
- eSnipe. -- nm - Mop on Macbook Air Apr 12, 19:03
- someone else has set their maximum bid higher -- nm - charlie Apr 12, 18:58 15
  - If he is the high bid, he is the highest, if someone was auto-bidding him up , it would say he was outbid by their continued bids -- nm - Will Hunting Apr 12, 19:00 11
    - but in the scenario you described it's just old fashioned sniping - charlie Apr 12, 19:03 2
      - It is; however, my guess is someone is setting a snipe to fire in the last second, so he gets the message with 2 seconds left, but they fire at the - Will Hunting Apr 12, 19:04 1
        
        there is also one click bidding which in the last few minutes of the auction opens a java script window and lets you click and increase bid instantly - zeitgeist Apr 12, 19:24
    - i haven't done it in a while but my recollection is i can always set my bid to go higher than the last highest bid (up to my own maximum) -- nm - charlie Apr 12, 19:02 7
      - I'll have to figure out how to do that I guess. - Stephen Apr 12, 19:04 5
        
        Did you get a message saying you were the high bidder, and then got outbid, or did it just say you had been outbid when you submit yours? - Ender Apr 12, 19:10 3
        
        "Your ebay bid is confirmed." and then just below that in the e-mail "You're currently the high bidder" - Stephen Apr 12, 19:33
        
        here's a tactic I've heard works in many situations where the bid hasn't gone over your intended max but still below item value...... - zeitgeist Apr 12, 19:32
        
        This is what I was trying to say. -- nm - Will Hunting Apr 12, 19:11
        
        Enter what you are willing to pay. The system will handle it. -- nm - Will Hunting Apr 12, 19:05
      - Let's say you bid $20, but the highest bid at the moment is $7...you'll be winning for $7.00 - Will Hunting Apr 12, 19:03
  - Tell that rookie!! -- nm - Bacon Apr 12, 18:58 2
    - and i've always suspected it's often a fake account by the lister to make sure that they get a minimum amount for their item - charlie Apr 12, 19:01 1
