eBay... probstein123
Hey guys, last night I was trying to win an auction with probstein123 on eBay. I was the highest bidder and had my internet browser open and refreshed when the final hammer came down. Only problem was that someone came in at the last second and outbid me. No biggie, except I did not have the chance to re bid. I called eBay immediately and they said they are having problems with snipe bidding. Either way you look at it, I think it's illegal. What should one do in this situation? Any help?

Why do you think it's illegal? That sounds kind of crazy to me.

My best suggestion is to determine the absolute max you're willing to pay for an item and bid that amount. If someone outbids you then you can take comfort in knowing they paid a price you weren't willing to pay. I could never understand why someone would bid less than what they're willing to pay and then complain about being sniped.

So it sounds like everyone's ok with snipe bidding. Guess I'll just have to start bidding that way.

To clarify: No. I hate snipe bidding. Putting in the highest offer you are comfortable with is the exact opposite of snipe bidding.
