3 questions (max bid/fees/lead time)

Hi Jerparise,
Thought since everybody else seems to be out and about I would give you some answers....

1. If an item is at $30 and my maximum bid is $70 and other people bid up to $60 (and say there's a $2 ramp), then will I win the item for $62 or for $70?

---

Answer: $62....That said - all of us recommend you use an odd ending amount ie, instead of $70 go for something like $72.67 - this may win you a couple more auctions.

2. How much does this service cost once you use up your free snipes?

---

Answer: Auction won that ended at $25.00 or less $0.25
Auction won that ended between $25.01 and $499.99 1% of final price
Auction won that ended at $500.00 or more $5.00

3. I've read different things regarding lead times.....

---

Answer: Oringinally posted by Sara (Sniper Goddess)7 seconds is plenty on a sunday unless they end between 5:30pm and 8:15pm. In that case I'd go with 8 or 9 seconds to be extra safe. Even 5 seconds would work 99% of the time, so the 8 or 9 seconds is just adding a small additional safety margin.

Hope that helps

Hope we see more of you around the forums

Mrs. M,

Don't forget: "i" before "r" except after "a"; and "neighbor" may be a factor.

Lol Rick - I am sure you guys think I spell things wrong all the time but its just our aussie way.

We love to *our* instead of *or* and we also add a *e* where its not really needed.

Then theres all those *lexieism* that will always be *ie* instead of *y*

Rick, that depends on the root of the word, dear. German is different than English, etc. ..and then their are exceptions such as their. And then their are people that are careless such as I am!
