Why do people even bid on an item when there is like more than an hour left in the auction?!?! Do they not understand it just drives the price up?? Right now someone is going to make a killing off a CP large backpack, LDL and zip id. There is still a day and 20 hours left and there have already been 22 bids!!!! The more people bid on it way in advance, the higher the price gets. If everyone waited till like 20 mins before the auction was up, one person would be getting an awesome price on that item!!! Does anyone else not get this? When I was looking at Cricut expressions for my birthday this REALLY drove me nuts cuz so many people were bidding so early on when the person selling it would start it out at like $.99!!! I understand the chances of getting something that cheap are like zero... but the prices could be a lot less if everyone waited till the final half hour or so. ok I think I'm done. ;D

I know, that irritates me too. People bid on stuff like 4 days in advance!!

AGREED! I simply don't understand what people are thinking when they do this. It is a waste of time and money. I'd rather not have people know I am even out there watching the item. I only bid in the last few seconds.

I agree, too! I honestly think people have others bid to increase the price. I never bid until the last few seconds b/c I use auctionsniper.

Yeah I was wondering about that if they have someone bid to increase the price and then if that person wins they just re-list it or something. Grr.
