Could this be the weirdest ebay bidding ever?

Posted By: Bob1911 Zeenut Weaver on ebay. I made a last second bid and apparently bid the exact same amount down to the penny $2,222.22 as the winner. How strange is that? w***5( 1075) US $2,222.22 Mar-24-09 18:17:25 PDT w***5( 1075) US $2,222.22 Mar-24-09 17:38:37 PDT tbob( 6363) US $2,222.22 Mar-24-09 18:17:46 PDT

Posted By: SteveI've seen it too, I've also seen where the winner wins by 1 cent. But you are right it does not happen often. Steve

Posted By: Robthe rare case on ebay where it doesn't work out to put in your bid at the last possible second.

Posted By: Andy CookAbout 10 years ago I lost a vg E92 Croft Cocoa common by a penny -- my bid was about $33 or so. That card would be 10x that now. Andy

Posted By: ClintI've had that happen to me before. Fortunately I put my bid in first. Still, you don't see that very often and is 2 your favorite number? Clint

Posted By: Steve MurrayAll I have to say is that I'm glad it went near market. I was a little worried when it was so low. Congrats to the winner. Sorry that you didn't snag it Bob. My favorite card.

Posted By: BobYes, really weird, oh well there will be another day. Steve- since my whole near set is graded by SGC I was afraid that when I crossed it over the writing on the back would drop it to an SGC 10, do you agree? tbob

Posted By: Steven FinleySame thing happened a about two years ago when I won a (you laugh now) 1981 Topps Football Wax Box for 475.75. Someone else had the exact same bid with something like eight seconds to go. Because I knew nothing of snipe services and rushed a bid after forgetting to sign in I also hit 475.75 with about six secs left. Fortunately (I laugh now) I was just getting back into the hobby and had my eye towards T206's and the three Montana RC's that graded 9's funded my T206 beginnings. An Evers with bat SGC 30 and a Walter Johnson Portrait SGC 20. To me not bad for 475.75. Well $495.75 after grading!

Posted By: leonI had a snipe set on this card and don't think it took. It was destined to go in the 2k range...All Weavers from Trucker Boy were $600....I got these 3 for that much each... <img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1237990138.JPG" alt="[linked image]"> <img src="http://luckeycards.com/pd310weaver.jpg" alt="[linked image]"> <img src="http://luckeycards.com/pt2123weaver.jpg" alt="[linked image]">

Posted By: Glen VAnother negative to sniping - earlier this year I had a snipe set that was higher than the winning bid. However, it didn't get placed because two other snipes pushed the bid high enough that mine wasn't about the minimum bid increment (bid had to be $1 above the current bid, mine was only 50 cents higher...) More strange eBay logic. This Uncle Jack was on eBay for a while with a BIN of $250, but nobody jumped on it: <a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/1933-Uncle-Jacks-Candy-JIM-BOTTOMLEY-HOF-PSA-2_W0QQitemZ110362628710QQihZ001QQcategoryZ31718QQs sPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://cgi.ebay.com/1933-Uncle-Jacks-Candy-JIM-BOTTOMLEY-HOF-PSA-2_W0QQitemZ110362628710QQihZ001QQcategoryZ31718QQs sPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem</a> It was relisted as a regular auction and sold for $488+: <a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/1933-Uncle-Jacks-Candy-JIM-BOTTOMLEY-HOF-PSA-2_W0QQitemZ110364187926QQihZ001QQcategoryZ31718QQs sPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://cgi.ebay.com/1933-Uncle-Jacks-Candy-JIM-BOTTOMLEY-HOF-PSA-2_W0QQitemZ110364187926QQihZ001QQcategoryZ31718QQs sPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem</a>
