[QUOTE="Thomas Rogers, post: 750595, member: 60724"] Kevin L, I am not sure if your post was sarcastic or not. Or do you really hold snipers at low regard, as if scum, and somehow not real men? Do you really think that the battle of an eBay bidding war is some kind of test of manhood that if avoided makes one less a man? If so, if you really think that way, call I can say is: ponderous. Also, eBay auctions are NOT like auctions throughout history in the real world as BillV said. In a normal auction when someone sneaks in a bid just prior to the auctioneer saying "sold" (analogous to the eBay auction end deadline) then the auction gets extended, with other bidders continuing to get the option to place higher bids. Some auction sites actually work that way. For example, liquidation.com has a system in which if a bid comes in during the last minute of the auction the listing gets extended by 3 minutes, and that can happen again and again if late bids keep coming in. That's more like the real world, IMHO.. TJR [/QUOTE]
