Just a quick rant, Someone did a not so cool move. Options

[hatchy_gt-s]

So I was bidding on a set of JDM taillights on ebay. One had a slight crack in it and it was going for 51.00 and I had the bib until someone at the last second out bid me by a dollar like and because I didnt get the notice fast enough on my phone.
Now I guessing it may be someone on here and if it is I would at least like an apology for out bidding me like that because Im working on a cool lighting idea, but you where nice enough to not allow me to continue.
If you are nice enough I will offer you 70.00 + shipping.

Also if anyone has a pair of fulty set of JDM tails please pm me!
Thanks

EDIT: FS ST202 front clip parts are for sale.

While it can be disappointing not to get that super bargain you thought you were going to get the point of online auction sites is to allow the seller access to the biggest possible market place upon which to sell their products. Remember auction sites make their money from fees off the seller, not the buyer and typically the size of the fee is relative to the amount of the sale.

Here in NZ Trademe auto-extends an auction by about 3 minutes if someone tries to drop in a last minute bid and I think this is entirely reasonable. It gives oportunity for other bidders to decide if they want to bid again, and it means the seller is going to get a fair bidding war rather than someone trying to sneak a bargain in the last few seconds.

From the buyers perspective, we potentially gain access to a far greater range of products (or products that would otherwise be all but impossible to source) and often with more sellers competing against each other so the laws of supply and demand still apply!
