[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by loathar</i> <br /><br />I got bad news for you! The bidding is all done by the Ebay computer in the last minute of the auction. It goes off the highest amount you entered that you where willing to spend on the product your bidding on. I didn't think there where still people logging in the last two min. of an auction trying to win the bid. It doesn't work that way. (though they make it seem like it does.) It's all based on your first bid yout put in. Maybe you can edit your bid at the end, but the computer does most of the work. For everybody typing in at the end, there's 10 people that forgot they even bid on that auction. Sorry to give you an Ebay reallity check. Still hope you had a GOOD Ebay expeiriance!!! <br />Hey Cheese3- I hope thay's not your train room up in flames!!! That would suck!!![:D] <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />Actually with my fast DSL I can enter a bid within 6 seconds of Ebay's official time ending of auction with any price I want to. <br /> <br />Regarding the win, congrats on your winning the trainset. I wish you all many happy bids in the future. <br /> <br />Regarding the Mrs. I usaully do a little something extra around the time the package is due to arrive. So the happy wife does not mind too much. I guess she knows that I do bid from time to time.
