Bid Early/Bid Late
Here's my thought and the logic behind...
Bid early with the HIGHEST AMOUNT you would be willing to pay.
THis was suggested to me when I first started bidding (and losing) on Ebay, and it is good advice. Obviously, we all want to pay as little as possible, and that is how ebay's proxy bidding works. For example, if you are willing to pay $100 - at MOST - but opening bid is $1, BID $100! Ebay will enter your first bid at $1. This way you will automatically out-bid anyone who bids later. Yes, these later-bidders *will* drive the prioce hight, so you've got to be willing to pay your bid price.
So, now you know my bidding strategy! If you see me bidding on ebay for ADPi stuff, you might want to PM or email me if you have a special request (I've been know to stop bidding or to sell for my purchase price TO SISTERS).
Loyally,
Leslie
PS - I also bid on Theta Chi (my dad's fraternity) items and NJ postcards.
