Am I the only one who thinks it’s crappy to wait around and bid last second! I think if you bid in the last 30 seconds of a lot it should be 30 seconds added to give the other bidder a chance! Then 30 seconds to each bidder to close the bid! Only the last two bidders gets to bits in the extra time if this happens!

Losing is a sign of weakness.

Never lose a bid.

Yep, you're the only one. Sniping auctions is one of my favorite things to do.

Bidding hint: Put a $ value on the max you are willing to pay for the lot and set it as your max bid.

Max Bid (Auto-Bid)

By selecting the Auto-Bid feature, when you’re outbid the auction system will automatically bid on your behalf up to your maximum bid. We increase your bid by the defined lot increment only as much as necessary to maintain your position as a winning bidder.

To use this feature, enter the maximum bid you are willing to make on this lot. The maximum bid must be at least one bid increment greater than your initial bid.

Please note that if auto-bid is activated, the bid will be raised for your entire bid quantity. However, once you have reached your maximum bid, you may win a partial quantity. You will not lose the lot until your entire quantity selected has been outbid.

Exactly Bucky. I have a number in mind I’m willing to go to, I set my max bid and move on. If I win, great, if not then I’ll find another auction just like it and repeat the process.

Every time you lose a bid an angel loses its wings.

I don’t remember that on CBid auctions but then again, I haven’t actively bid for close to a year and a half. 🤔

I believe a certain two initial cigar website does extend the time if a bid is posted in the final minute or so of bidding in their auctions. Some folks need to win more than they worry about cost. Watch how many bids go above CI's list price.
