[Rubys mummy]

Have been bidding on Ebay for dream pram for 3 days, just been outbid with 2 hours to go and dont want to go higher as we had set a budget...

It wasnt meant to be.....
And we have AGES to sort out pram
I was so excited tho

How gutting ,which one was it xx

 

I NEVER bid on anything till half an hour to go as it just raises the price up rediculously without needing to. Hope you get another one soon babes. Which one was it? x

Getting outbid on ebay really sucks esp when your sooo close and you have your heart set on it!!! You have plenty of time yet hun, im sure another will come up xx

 

[Rubys mummy]

Lost it by a tenner in the end!!! I feel a bit silly being so dissapointed as I have so long to go still but you know when you set your heart on something????

I bet I will see another one I like much better in a few months so it wasnt meant to be xx

There will definitely be more Zoe and don't be embarrassed about getting ready early, I have bought just about everything now down to my big pants for after the birth

why bid for 3 days? I never bid on anything till the last 20 seconds. No point it just takes the price up you bid someone outbids you again and again and again...just wait till it gets to the last 20 secs enter your HIGHEST maximum bid even if the price is nowhere near this yet and let it bid automatically for you. It will not go over your highest maxiumum bid but say you put in £80 and someone tries to bid £50 and it ends you will get it for £50. When you put a bid in it dosnt mean that you will pay that amount if the last person before you bids less than your max bid then thats all you will pay. Do you understand? Took me a while to get it when i first used ebay. If not i can give you an example?


Hope this helps with future bidding

hehe thats no problem huni, glad u got it now its good cause you dont need to be on there when the auction ends too...there is also a program called bidslayer that you can download free, you cant set it to bid in the last 5 seconds for you automatically, again you just put the max amount that you would bid into it but the good thing is that it dosnt do anything till last few secs so people dont know other people have put in bids and cant sit there trying to catch up with yours
