Worse still I just checked she's spiking all of her bids with probably a pretty good program. My e-Bay pet peeve. I know others "spike", but I really prefer the thrill of trying to do a manual last minute bid. If I can't win it without assistance I must not need it? Sorry I really hate being outbid with 6 seconds to go... & yes I am aware it is a boon for the sellers but it's sad for some of us bidders :0(

It's called "sniping" and it's good for the buyer, not the seller. I don't have time to go into it. Search "sniping" and username "Kono" and I have explained why sniping is good for America and good for the World. Even the great Kohalacharms snipes nowadays.

I dusted off PSP and made this for kaiTheGuy. Mail this to her, I dare ya!

I could probably do a better/more legible job but I am near bedtime.

Did the seller who originally tried to get you to end the auction early offer you $125?? Just curious. :D
