looks like I'll have to randomize my snipe amounts... I'm the .13 cents guy.
Yeah agree here, it was a snipe, not a shill. BTW, what's a good sniping service to use??

On a hidden proxy the highest amount wins in a snipe like this. Your hidden cap was less than the dollar needed so it placed your max bid in it's place.
This the exact reason people add those extra cents. Win I win by a penny, I am pleased in the most evil of ways, lol.

HaHa
.25 or .26 for me. My reasoning is, if I'm willing to go to 50 bucks on an item, I certainly should be willing to go to $50.26 cents on an item if I really want it, and want to top out the guy who bid an even 50 clams for it. More often then not, somebody else was willing to go much higher then me.......rendering the whole thing moot. ![]() |

The worst part of this thread is now everyone is going to start bidding in oddly bizarre amounts, so no potentially winning bid will ever be safe again!!!

...and if you're willing to go 50.26 you really should be willing to go 50.52, and if you're willing to go 50.52 you really should be willing to go 50.74... oh dear...

This is me every time I'm bidding near the end of the auction. FOMO is so strong. Before I know it, I'm typing in a bid of 525.67 for an item where I had said my max was $285....
