Ebay rant

I hate people who bid on things on ebay before the last day. If you do this you are an idiot. Watch the item and then bid that day. Preferably 2 hours before. You jack up the price by bidding on the item before that date. You also make the situation worse for yourself..items that are bidded on move their way up the list on ebay. Meaning more people will be looking at this item. People engage in bidding wars days before the item is even over. Why?! Let that person have the item until the last few hours, then bid. They may not be on the computer at that point and you saved yourself some cash. What usually happens is the 2 bidding war people bid themselves out long before the auction actually ends and someone else swoops in to buy it. That person is almost always me. I get the item for as cheap as possible. I use a program that bids for me. At the last second. I type in my max bid and it will go just high enough to kick out all the other bidders. I've used this program for over a year. It works 99% of the time. I've only lost once. Someone had to be using a similar program. But since hardly anyone knows about it I win. Cheapest price, last
Min. So if everyone else would stop bidding stuff up, and abandoning the item when they bid it up to a ridiculous price days before it ends..that'd be nice.
