I just sold my rim and tire off my 2000 F4 today and I was pretty disappointed on how much it went for...only $29+shipping.

E***, I love it... You can't blame it,for your computer acces malfunction. it's a auction, auction style, highest timely bid gets it... not nescacarily the last bidder... sharpen your skills, it just like ride'n... ya snooze, ya loose !!!!!!!!! I have enlisted the skills of a pro sniper... I get almost everything, I bid on, it's w/in the rules and format.

Do you think you could find this selection, anyplace else????, w/ new stuff daily, a rate'n system, able to put your .02 in on feedback, check local values,scarcety, upgrade ideas, where the heck else do I find a shrunk'n head, w/ inlaws comming, next week !!!!!!!!!! I lost out on a trick aftermarket shock for a cbr1000f, last mo., ouch!!!! oh well!!!!!!!!

I do hope the deals go better for you soon, Cleanand free, Ripp'n

Simple solution: put in a "max bid" and make it the most you're willing to pay. It will only increase the amount you're bidding UP TO what someone else bids.... in other words, you won't necessarily have to pay the "max bid" you put in. This is all explained in the buyer help section. Happy ebaying,

Go to auctionsniper.com. It will automatically bid for you when there is only 2 seconds left in the auction. You don't have to be at your computer at all. As long as your max bid is higher then what the bid is at the 2 second mark, it will bid for you. You'll prob. have a lot of pissed off people that thought they were getting something, though.

My max bid always changes becuase at first I have a set price thne someone out bids that and I think well I will pay a little more, before I know it I have doubled my original max bid......But I also let alot of items go too, its an auction you cant win everything...well I guess you could if ya had the money....

I dont even bid at all until the last 5 seconds. It serves no purpose to be high bidder with 3 days left... All it does is ultimately raise the selling price, IMO.
