cactuscarl Posted November 1, 2012 No editing your guesses man.. ;) That would cause quite a conundrum. I would have waited for the last hour and hedged my bets then. It's a game of tactics this one Winner will be anounced at the end of the ebay auction and entries close tonight. Good luck everyone yeah I didn't think so just trying for a second chance good luck guys Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GoOnThen Posted November 2, 2012 Um Kate I think you needed to read the comp rules a bit more thoroughly as you have already missed out as the price is already over $300.00 Here is the link again http://www.ebay.com....=item416d9caaa8 Tipz it is your comp but do you think Kate should be allowed a second chance Cheers Got Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
qualia Posted November 2, 2012 here's hoping for a bidding surge toward the end, Tipz it is your comp but do you think Kate should be allowed a second chance if kate gets a second chance i want a second chance too, fairs fair Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GoOnThen Posted November 2, 2012 here's hoping for a bidding surge toward the end, if kate gets a second chance i want a second chance too, fairs fair WTF How do you figure that. You are still in the running Kate entered with an amount that had already been pasted on ebay. Some times I really do wonder about the way some people think around here. Cheers Got Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
qualia Posted November 2, 2012 (edited) um, the rules of the competition were very clearly stated in the opening post. if kate can't be bothered to read the rules of the comp before entering then i hardly think that allows her to have a 24 hour advantage. whats the point of having competition rules if they are not adhered to? one rule for people who who can read and another for people who aren't willing to to pay attention? so where does it stop? someone posts tomorrow evening an hour before the auction ends "oh sorry i didn't read the rules"?

tipz Posted November 2, 2012 (edited) Come on, no need for a shit fight. Generally I am pretty lenient with stuff like this, but there is only one pup up for grabs and It is quite a desirable one. Kate, I am sorry but all entries were closed last night as stated in my initial post. I don't wanna be a hardass but unfortunately this time I have to stick by the rules. All entries are closed.. good luck to all and I suppose we will see who the winner is at the end of auction EDIT - GOT unfortunately she not only entered a guess that was lower than the current bid, It was unfortunately also a day late. Qualia does have a point. Lets keep this little comp nice and chill hey ? Edited November 2, 2012 by tipz 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GoOnThen Posted November 2, 2012 I am sorry I had forgotten that the comp finish time had come and gone I had just thought that Kate had entered legitimately but at a price that had already been past. Please accept my apology Qualia I should probably think before banging away on my keyboard. Tipz sorry mate but my intentions were honorable but I stuffed up. Sorry to drag your great little comp down to this. I will show myself to the door and throw myself out. Cheers Got Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

whitewind Posted November 2, 2012 Look at the bid history and there is a weird series where the same bidder seems to increase their bid by one cent every minute until what looks like a real bid is made and the bids jump by quite a bit. There is something strange going on, is that a bid sniper at work or something? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Psylo Posted November 3, 2012 Look at the bid history and there is a weird series where the same bidder seems to increase their bid by one cent every minute until what looks like a real bid is made and the bids jump by quite a bit. There is something strange going on, is that a bid sniper at work or something? Not weird, that happens when you bid against another person, and their max. bid is higher than the bidder trying to gain the lead. E-Bay automatically bumps up the prior bid just enough to cover the lead position until the max. bid is reached, and someone else takes the auction lead Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
