Great, poor, expensive. hidden costs, no sign of the item etc.....
Thanks in advance

I think betting site would be a better term than auction. This is how they manage to sell stuff so cheap because they earn from the bids and doesn't this value change with the amount of bids. I could be wrong but the end time for the auction may not stay the same either depending on how many bidders there are. I think this is how it works. Less bids the higher the fee to bid and the more bidding going on extends the length of the auction but bids get cheaper. When everyone stops bidding the last person to bid wins.Mav617 wrote:I tried to sign up and bid on a set of indicators but it seems you have to put money in before you can bid?
