This is annoying to us all, and I'd like you to stop! That is what the "watch this item" button is for so you can sign back in on the day the item ends and then bid down to the last second.
But no you run the prices up higher and higher because others like you are both trying to outbid eachother on two different auctions- duh if you each took one auction and stuck to it we could all get the items we want and still have money left over for more cards...
Look at s***v for example here: http://offer.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewBids&item=360158975378 and here: http://offer.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewBids&item=270399536577
Started off bidding $ 40+ on both auction.... which made each item jump when the next person tried to bid on it... so do us all a favor and quit that..., So, is it a conspiracy? Are sellers creating new identities to bid on their own items to be able to start the auction at a low price, but determine the sale price is high by going in and bidding???
Makes me wonder...
Are you going to spread the word... use the Watch it now till the auction is about to close and then bid during the last moments...
