Oh, Heavens no.....that's a newbie mistake! I've been with ebay since they started and the bidding wars aren't as vicious as they used to be
I have seen many new bidders who will bid on the first day and then go bid each time they get outbid for the next week...silly behavior.
I do wait until the last day and, if possible, I don't get ready to bid until the last minute...then, at the right time hit the confirm bid button. However, if someone has set up a snipe through a program it's hard to beat.
The item I wanted was a one of a kind piece and that's why I'm still kicking myself! Personally, I would have bid way more but I don't think my husband would have liked it so I was a good girl and bid conservatively...danged conscience
