Hello,
I wanted to point out a trick that mr Chris uses on ebay. Since I bought already 4 items from him. Basically what he does is use a different ebay nick to outbid you if he doesn't like the price an item is going for. In the past when I wanted an item from ebay, and the end time is like 4 or 5 o clock in the morning I do an automatic bid with a pretty high max bid, so high that it's a bit above what I want to spend for the item. This way I normally win the item at a lower price then my maximum. In 3 of the 4 items I bought from Chris, someoone at the last minute placed a huge bid and won the Item. The item then got reoffered to me with a second chance offer at my maximum bid price. That's is not what I consider fair beaviour even if the system actually allows such loop, and a vendor is taking advantage of it.
I will still buy stuff from Chris, and so should you, just be careful and don't offer maximum bids, because you are absolutely sure that he's gonna max out your max bid. Instead bid 1$ at a time to try and win the item, or make a rather conservative maximum bid. From now on I will do just that.
Regards!
