Cels Forum

I like eBay for the little stuff, but when it comes to things 
I *really* want, I usually just put insane bids on stuff - like $500 
for something I know will only go for $100 - although sometimes I'm 
surprised! @_@ That way I'm sure to get it and don't have to keep 
checking back. I have a bad habit of bidding or bookmarking something 
and then forgetting about it until a week after it ends.

I'm one of the people who hates auctions. :) I'd much rather just *buy* 
something than have to sit and wait for days and days on end. I'll never 
understand why people prefer auctions. I just sold two cels that were 
on my site for $15 each for $30 and $20.50 - I just don't see the reasoning 
behind wanting to pay more; eBay seems more and more like a playground for 
un-informed newbies. :( 

How about all the un-honest (is that the word I'm looking for?) users, though? 
There are so many people who intentionally lie and misuse the bidding system......
I've gotten so many people kicked off eBay, it's insane. I'd think more people would 
worry about their own auctions than trying to antagonize me. ^_~

I think I need to learn the "sit on your hands" technique, too....
