A few tips. On auctions, wait until just before it ends to place your bid. Use the watch list to keep track of the item. Place your best bid and add a few cents to break any tie. You only want to bid once so make it your max bid.
Take the shipping cost into account when deciding on how much to bid. Always check and compare prices in other selling venues before you make a purchase to unsure the best value for your money. Auctions may or may not always be the best deal.
Watch out for too good to be true deals, they are often scams.
