Well, I finally found something on Ebay I really did not want to lose, and knew I would be able most likely win with pretty large bid (They were NFL cleats)..Most Items I want are simply out of my price range, so it really makes no sense to even worry about bidding...In the past (I have no idea why I would do this) I would put in my maximum bid well outside the end date of the auction...I have lost some bids probally for this exact reason, and it does not make a whole lot of sense...I finally just watched the bidding go on as a spectator, and it was hard to resist the urge to place a bid...It was intersting to watch people put in a current winning bid, then another as if to say "don't even bother", only to find there next bid was like $20 more...I just waited until 1 minute to go, place a ridiculously high bid (maximum I would have actually paid) and won the auction for the exact amount the last bidder had placed earlier the previous day....I just know if I had done the exact same thing (say 4 hours out) my bid would have certainly been pushed near my maximum....It seems like simple logic, but it is so hard to resist bidding....I really wanted these cleats and my only fear was having our wireless service slow down (which happens a lot lately).
