Have You Ever Participated In A Online Auction?

Postby A K Rao » 15 Aug 2018, 16:14

I have participated in online auction on e-bay few years back to have a Video Projector!

The bid was not going up till the last day and just before 30 minutes before the closing time, the bid started to increase!

I have bid twice to increase the price and waited till the end to place a final bid and that worked for me .

I got my projector on the time and it was in a excellent condition and that is still working!

That was a wonderful experience I had ! Have you ever participated in any on line auction?

I have an ebay account. I have not been active in a while though. I used to be an auction thief. It was the legal way of stealing an auction at the last second and put in a higher bid. It was fun and I always got what I wanted :)

Oh good for. I have never participated in an Online auction. What if the bid was higher than you stipulated, would you still have put the final bid?

I did not involve in auction either online or offline. I did buy something via a bid on Ebay.

I think it's good to grab a house via bank auction which always sell at lower than market value.

I have bid for items on ebay although not for some time now. I got some real bargains but you have to be able to time it right so that you bid at the very last second otherwise you lose it to someone else.

Yes, I understand wht youa re saying! In fact most of the times it works like that only!

But if there is another party interested in the same product then we may end up with a failure!

I feel online bidding is much better than actual bidding as here the participants don't face any ego problems!

I love online bidding and will try for some interesting coins if I get any online!

I sold an action figure I have during my childhood. I originally purchased it for 3 dollars and it caused $250 dollars now.

Yes, I did bid for something on ebay for the first time and lost. I was probably too inexperienced, but will surely try again if I see something I need.

How much is the usual price of the antique coins? I love collecting old coins as a souvenir.
