Hi all-

I know, not another off topic post from Mr. Wilkinson but if our grand list miester will indulge me since this may help us all save some $$$.

As we all know it is a love/hate thing with ebay... And the savy bidder waits until the last possible second to place a bid because bidding beforehand usually just causes one to groan as they are outbid, etc...

There is a site I heard about yesterday that sounds like a good thing although I have not used it yet.

http://www.esnipe.com

Basically, this site lets you /track/ the items you are interested in and automatically place a bid based on "what it is worth to you" during the last few seconds of the on- line auction while you comfortably catch up on much needed Zzzzz after a long road trip and a dozen Krispy Kremes;)
