Ebay notice - You've been outbid - Yesssss! (1 Viewer)

[mike32]

Funny but this just happened to me, AGAIN. I am thrilled to see I have been outbid at the last minute because after a week of waiting I really did not want the item I bid on. Why do I do this?

Anyone else ever been happy to be outbid?

Me too!

That price for this item is way too low. I don't want it, but I'll throw in a bid and if I happen to win, I'll be getting a great deal...

Of course I hate to lose at anything, which makes for an interesting conundrum when I get outbid.

^FYP - friends don't let friends eBay drunk.

Since I bid in the last five seconds, this never happens to me.

I've never let bidding affect my drinking.

Im in the same boat with @DrStrange

Bid last few seconds and its mine, or not..

I like to bid at 7 seconds, just so they have enough time to scramble and attempt to raise the max bid on there end........AND FAIL >:0) Mwahahahaha Suckas!!!!!!!!!!!

of course, its part of the game....

watching the last ticks of the auction clock is the extra cheap thrill you get when bidding

sometimes you are hoping someone snipes you with 2 seconds to go........cuz you sort of want it but maybe not really

or you play the sniper on most days is the smarter move....if i make a drunk bid with time to retract, i just retract it but have gone back and tried to snipe it after second thoughts......fkn crazy game.
