Just like any auction, when you want to stop your bidding...you just stop bidding!<br /><br />It's not for everyone and I explained that in my disclaimer on today's post! At least, I thought I did.<br /><br />Sorry I gave the impression that I don't have any common sense, but I do! Not much but a little!<br /><br />Have a good day and thanks for stopping by!HermitJimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13631580830147175636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2474304103076898115.post-41905013974885335082012-01-02T12:03:33.182-06:002012-01-02T12:03:33.182-06:00Think you better read the fine print, it costs .60...Think you better read the fine print, it costs .60 each bid, plus the .01 for something else, and you have to prepay for bids. Not a good site, as far as i'm concerned. Didn't stay long enough to find out how you can stop your bidding.TROUBLEnTXhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15101519457688182222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2474304103076898115.post-76232703804732025902012-01-02T11:53:19.143-06:002012-01-02T11:53:19.143-06:00Funny, in today's paper is a piece about Clark...Funny, in today's paper is a piece about Clark Howard's Living Large in Lean Times, lol, The El Cheapo Man,,<br />Heck, i grew up that way, like everybody else did here, in the<br /> 50s.

It is very cold 17 degrees and very windy here in WI so I'll have my coffee inside this morning.linda mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08203742811516417039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2474304103076898115.post-53049062094722659152012-01-02T09:55:26.657-06:002012-01-02T09:55:26.657-06:00Hey Anon 6:16...

Too bad this site doesn't sell firearms!<br /><br />Thanks, my friend, for coming by today!<br /><br /><br />Hey Momlady...<br />I can certainly understand that! An old tradition is to start the new year of being "square with every man!"<br /><br />Besides, paying off debt is always a good idea in my book! Not incurring new debt is even better!<br /><br />Thanks, lady, for dropping by today!<br /><br /><br />Hey Ben...<br />It's a lot of fun, but you certainly have to use a lot of common sense on any site like that!<br /><br />It is fun, but watching for the right time to bid is time consuming! Still, I needed the new coffee pot!<br /><br />Sometimes cheap is good! Thanks, buddy, for coming by today!<br /><br /><br />Hey Western Mass. Man...<br />That's why I like this site's way of only using bids you have already paid for.<br /><br />One thing I do like is the automatic bid feature! Instead of having to watch the whole bidding process, you can see what the past items have sold for, start the autobid feature at the amount you chose, and use only the number of bids you chose to! That way you can go do something else!<br /><br />Sorta like online gambling where a LOT of common sense is important!<br /><br />Hey, thanks for coming by today!<br /><br /><br />Hey JoJo...<br />I've been using Ebay for years...even sold on them a few times! Always had good luck!<br /><br />New coffee pot should be here today and I'll certainly keep you posted! Gotta have that coffee!<br /><br />Thanks, sweetie, for coming over today!HermitJimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13631580830147175636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2474304103076898115.post-14974737762798616032012-01-02T09:18:27.319-06:002012-01-02T09:18:27.319-06:00Nice coffee maker.

Hope it works well for you. <br />I'm not much into those sites, don't even like e-bay.<br />But I like having good coffee with a good friend so lets have a full cup here please.<br />Winds a blowin here again.JOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05658713978278693047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2474304103076898115.post-82686975409595593272012-01-02T08:51:54.109-06:002012-01-02T08:51:54.109-06:00Just be careful on those sites.

Its usually .01 per bid and the bidding process can go on and on.<br />After each bid, it adds 10 sec. to the countdown.<br /><br />I have read many people were forced to stay up all night to stay in the bid process. You can easily lose an item just getting up and going to the bathroom.<br /><br />Just keep in mind it costs you money to bid. Spend an hour or 2 bidding on an item and it can easily cost a couple dollars to get nothing.Western Mass.
