    Ebay bidding? I used to do that. My brother and I got tons of stuff on ebay. Megaman X4 for the Sega Saturn and Playstation, Saga Frontier (He spent MY money on it. ), Dragon Ball Z: Hyper Dimension, lots of Anime (lol bootlegz), a rom disc (>_> We gots duped.), Dreamcast games, etc.

    We used to get everything from ebay. Then half.com was introduced to us.

    I've only bought one thing on Ebay, and it was cool to win a bid for the first time. Of course, other than that, I never won again. ><; I prefer Amazon for 'buy it now'.

    without reading this thread, i hardly think that ebay can make me a bag made out of nerves. I already have a book bag.

    Yeah, but it's a bit expensive. (Then again, I do bid on things that are blown out of proportion later in the time limit.)

    A couple years ago, I tried buying tickets to a Sharks game in the Western Conference finals. I had it all lined up and then some homeboy put in a higher bid with about two seconds left. I was so mad.

    Does anyone else get like this with Ebay?
    I do. And I always lose! I use my mom's account and she always makes me bid. I'm like, "Mom, I don't have a chance of losing if I just but it now!" And she says "But it's cheaper to Bid." Grrrr!

    Ive just bought another load of books. There was one bid of $3.01 (£1.25) from 3 days ago and an 1 hour and 53 minutes to go, I decided to place a bid of $15 (£7). I thought the guy would forget, but about 4 seconds to go, he placed a bid on of $5.01 and cause I had entered a high bid an hour before, my bid went up to $5.51, so I beat him by 50p! And including p&p its £8 in total which isnt bad for books that havent come to the UK!
