Hi everyone!
This is actually my first time bidding on an item on eBay, and I'm planning to use AS (:
I researched and am aware of how the sniping system works, but I am just afraid that since it's my first time buying something off of eBay, the seller will block my bid. I understand that sellers can set "buyer preferences" limited to buyers who have good feedback, etc. Should I place a bid just to see if I am able to for this item? (Current bid is $102.50 so I will enter $105.00 just to see if the bid will go through). Placing a bid manually earlier on won't affect the AS system, right?
Much thanks!
