Fez of Mahrez Posted 16 April 2007 Posted 16 April 2007 Outbid on a Creative Zen 4GB with radio, video etc, with one second to go!
The People's Hero Posted 17 April 2007 Posted 17 April 2007 I wouldn't condone it for a moment, but it could be that someone is using some 'autobid' software. This has happened to me so often in the past few weeks, being outbid with one second to go when no one else even appeared to be watching.
MC Prussian Posted 17 April 2007 Posted 17 April 2007 There are some real pro's out there. Beware! I'm on the safe side, because I usually sell and do not buy on eBay.
The People's Hero Posted 17 April 2007 Posted 17 April 2007 Try this... http://www.powersnipe.com/ Or some of the other identical bits of software out there
Master Fox Posted 17 April 2007 Posted 17 April 2007 I’ve been thinking of purchasing an ipod for a while now, I’ve found one I like but I was completely unaware of these Zens. So what’s better? The Zen seems about £30-£40 cheaper.

MC Prussian Posted 17 April 2007 Posted 17 April 2007 Yeah but Skoda is very similar to VW. But you would rather drive a VW right? Odd comparison. Skoda actually builds the exact same cars (meaning using the same motors and chassis) in VW factories, albeit under a different name (both brands belong to the same car manufacturer group). I'd go for a Skoda.

Daggers Posted 17 April 2007 Posted 17 April 2007 I am very disappointed to discover that this thread is not about fish. We need more fishy threads.
MC Prussian Posted 17 April 2007 Posted 17 April 2007 Liar! I thought it was a reasonable comparison. But to be honest, Skoda doesn't have anything comparable to a VW Golf. (Excuse the horrible colour choice)
Phube Posted 17 April 2007 Posted 17 April 2007 Ah Ha.. i won like that when I was selling my WiFi adapter!! With 30 seconds to go it was at £18.50. Then every 5 seconds it kept going up!! Sold for £28.50 +p&p... (only £30 new!!) Niiice!!!

Zingari Posted 17 April 2007 Posted 17 April 2007 Outbid on a Creative Zen 4GB with radio, video etc, with one second to go! i think they may be using something called "snipe" which auto bids at the last second not sure though
Sods Posted 17 April 2007 Posted 17 April 2007 Outbid on a Creative Zen 4GB with radio, video etc, with one second to go! ive got this zen, how much did it go for
Joe. Posted 17 April 2007 Posted 17 April 2007 I've got a 5 gb one and it's brilliant. I think you can buy it new for around £90-100. For what you get they're great value for money. They're as good as an ipod, if not better in some respects. They certainly have more features.
