Grabbing stuff that eBay would "outlaw" if the "safeharbor" crew had a chance at it!!!

I assume full responsibility for my actions, except
the ones that are someone else's fault.

I like it as a seller because it forces the lookers to make a decision - if they really want an item they either have to do the BIN option or bid because if they don't, someone else may come along and BIN the item!!

If I really want it, I will BIN.
If I want it and know that it won't go above BIN, I will drop a bid on it.
BUT I will let it go if it goes higher than the BIN price (somehow I should be getting commission for all the auctions I drop a bid on only to see some twonk, bid up over the BIN price...doh!)
Sometimes I will drop a bid on it to slow down the action so that I can research the item, email, price compare etc. Then I know how hight I am willing to go. I usually am happily outbid and then I can go snipe at the end if it's a good deal, or let it go.
Worse, is seeing BIN auctions that are ended. waste of a mouse click!
