Ebay
I've purchased over 100 items from Ebay. Electronics and golf stuff.
I usually do not jump in and buy something right away.
I try to find out whay the item is going for. I lurk and look at past sales for the same item from the different sellers.
You then need to decide what the max you want to pay.
Bid and hope. I usually don't buy early, just wait till the last day.
Have I lost bids, sure thing. Have late bidders driven up the price. Sure thing.
Have I won bids at real great prices. Sure thing.
Moral of the story, some time you lose one sometimes you win one, but never over pay. Do not get into a bidding war early in the game...
Good luck.
