Remember the old days where you could search another eBay bidders current bids. All you had to do was follow other bidders and let them do all the research.

What I miss is not being able to track certain (alleged) card doctors' purchases. All those 5s and 6s that would magically reappear as 8s and 9s.

She just sold that trimmed Cobb Green for $4,000.

She only got $3,000 for it back in January. The market for trimmed Cobb greens is exploding.

Here's a few rules I live by happily in my collecting life. To each their own:

SNIPING. If you are buying on ebay without using sniping software you are only helping the seller make more money. Raising the bids before the end only drives interest in the auction and causes eventual snipers to place higher snipes. If sniping was making ebay money they would offer the service.


SHILLING. If you are bidding in a blind auction (like ebay) you should assume you are always being "shilled." And real "shillers" in ebay don't bid things up in increments. They place "shill" snipes. Why would you shill in increments when you will be noticed by potential buyers (and potentially outed on Net54)?

Before you bid you should determine how much you want to pay for the item and then "set it and forget it." Shilling is an occupational hobby hazard. If you want to play in the auction house setting you'll be much happier paying what you want for an item without worrying that you could've had it cheaper but for some phantom shiller.

Just my 2 cents...
