How to Be a Winner on eBay



Place your highest bid
Doing this at the outset improves your odds of winning. "Remember, eBay doesn't show your maximum bid or anyone else's until it's topped," says Collier. Fear not. If you win, you'll pay only slightly more than the bid just below yours.

Bid an odd number
You stand a better chance of winning if your dollar bids are unusual and the last two numbers are above 50 cents. "Most people bid in round numbers," Collier says. "So if you bid $27.57 and the next highest bidder stops at $26.50, you win."

Try a snipe
Several online services will place your bid automatically within the final seconds of an auction. For example, bidrobot.com charges $3.95 for three weeks of unlimited last-second bidding, while esnipe.com charges 1% of your winning price, with a $10 maximum fee.

Thought of the Day

"To live in the moment, to gamble life sometimes, to love unconditionally"

What I like about this quote is that it asks us to live and enjoy our lives of the moment, to take risks in life even though sometimes we might fail but that's the point of life. We need to fail in order to understand what is wrong and we can learn from the mistakes. The journey to become successful never ends. Love....by loving we can create a much better world. World full of joy and laughter, world without war and there will be no such thing as enemy..... Peace ^^v

This quote is from Oprah.com:
"You don't waste another year of your life passing without you being who you were meant to be"

Laugh of the Day

My boyfriend and I met online and we'd been dating for over a year. I introduced Hans to my uncle, who was fascinated by the fact that we met over the Internet. He asked Hans what kind of line he had used to pick me up. Ever the geek, Hans naively replied, "I just used a regular 56K modem."
