When buying on Ebay one needs to be smart, just wait till the bidding is almost done...let's say 10/15 mins left (even better the last minute
), then place your bid. All bidding before that really is a waste of time and only ment to get the price up. It's easy to influence the price..by the seller himself too..he could have a friend bidding on his item to get it upto the price he really wants.
Ohh yeah, always look at the terms of shipping...prices etc. and if it's worldwide or not incase you don't live in the same country as the one selling the item. And look at the sellers reputation.
