    Always set your max bid to a really strange number like $736.92. I've just barely won several auctions that way.

    It always pays to make sure......

    Make sure you're HOME at the end of the auction and bid at the last minute.
    If you don't, you'll just end up in a bidding war with someone else.
    You're only shooting yourself in the foot by bidding early.
    All you're doing is helping out the seller.

    BUT...bidding an oddball price is a GREAT idea.....so long as no one else outbids your price.

    SNIPING programs are EXCELLENT.
    I've used them in the past and they WORK.

    Yeah I did snipe it, at 1hr left it was only at $530, so I thought $701 on my sniper would take it, $711 for a decent running and looking 350 and nearby, what a steal, not to mention a cool ass wheelie bar perfect for the W. TN Sand Drags, DAMN!

    One dollar over a round figure like that is almost never enough.

    SNIPE at the last minute!

    Don't snipe an hour before it ends!
    Good heavens.....wait until the LAST 5 minutes and place your snipe.
    Providing no one else is doing the same and/or outbid your max, you're good to go.
    My SNIPE is set to bid in the last 30 seconds.
    If someone outbids my snipe, then I wasn't meant to have the item.
    Such is life.

    I can't emphasize this enough folks.
    If you want an item bad enough..........WAIT and make sure you're home within a half hour or so of when the auction ends....or make sure a family member, friend, etc. is watching for you if you can't be there.
    It'll be worth it!
