Damn sniper bidders
Lost an auction for a turbocharger by one dollar. That really pisses me off. I say we find the guy's house and burn it down, or something.

Just another reason to like the gunbroker auction 15 minute rule.0 -
Learn to spell that's a good one. I spent 13 years in K-12 and 4 years in college, this is as good as my spelling gets. 0 -
All of my auctions clearly state: "Bidders only - no biders allowed". 0 -
My keyboard doesn't do double key strokes that well, it's old and wireless. 0 -
I'd like to see a lot of E-bay's website structure applied to GB's auctions. I asked for tabs on the top of the page, like E-bay, that lists "Bid Items", "Items For Sale" and "All Items". I also asked for auction listings to be charged a fee after [predetermined amount] of re-listings.
My post above is an "open support issue" with Gunbroker Holdings, INC. Been over six months as an open issue. Will post any reply here on the forum, when and if I get one. Joe
PS..Glad to have the 15min. rule, though.0 -

The turbo was a Garrett T3 off of a 1985 Mustang SVO. It was for a little project I'm working on. I'm trying to be the first person with a turbocharged Gen 4 Taurus. 0 -
what year is your car 0 -
My Taurus is an '06. This install will be a total custom job since there are no commercially available performance parts for the car, just custom made parts or parts adapted from other applications. 0 -
I got sick of being sniped as well so I figured "If you can't beat 'em, join 'em". I signed up with www.auctionsniper.com and got three snipes free as a trial. I won all three, sometimes by pennies in the last 7 seconds.
I then signed up for a full membership, sniped 8 auctions and my total cost to Auction Sniper was a mere $4.87. You just set your snipes and forget about it and only pay for the snipes you win.0 -
Sorry you lost your auction,cat. When I first joined ebay,I lost some auctions by last second bidding.I have since became a pro at winning auctions in the last few seconds. You should just start doing it or you will continue to lose auctions. 0 -
Get yourself a stopwatch. With a winning bid registered with ONE SECOND to spare, I am considered a Master Sniper! [:D] 0 -
I'm not new to ebay, my internet connection just slowed down right at the end of the auction. 0 -

Yep.0 -
That's why you should bid what you are willing to pay. If you were willing to go another dollar higher you should have bid another dollar higher. 0 -
I'll just save some more and buy a remanufactured turbo instead of taking a chance on a used one. 0 -

Yeah yeah yeah, bid higher. Got it, I was planing on sniping this one if I got out bid, the other guy just happened to have the same plan and was a hair faster. 0
