A purse for my wife, 10.51 , I bid 11.00
does this mean that I must bid 11.01 for it to go through?
If so then why doesn't everbody bid $ **.*1 for everything on
re planet:lol:
1 cent can make allo the difference

eBay bid increment in that price range is 0.50, so ebay wouldn't allow any bid less than current high bid of 10.51 + 0.50.

Sure, had you known ahead of time you would need that one cent, of course you would have added it. But you have no way of knowing what the current high bid is going to be at the time when auctions ends.

1cent should always be used across the board? Why not! (

It is certainly common practice for auction buyers on eBay (whether they snipe or not) not to bid on what would otherwise be considered normal boundaries.

If you had bid the maximum that you were willing to pay, say $20.00 you would have won the auction. If you had bid the amount that you bid before the winner, that is if you bid first, you would have won. You did not bid enough, and you were late, you lose.

I don't want to loss that's why I use this auction sniper, so can I blame it on the guest and leave it at that?
