A lot of sellers end auctions at the last second, but this guy takes the cake.

E.MIX takes it to ridiculous extremes.

On that first page of 25 listings, he ended 15 at the last second because the bids didn't go high enough. He does this every single day. I know this is a seller's right, but this is just plain stupid.

  • Happened to me last week Russ, seller cancelled within the last 5 seconds. I had a bid of I think $3.40 on a proof set.image

  • He must have some type of software to do that for him. I don't know why eBay doesn't stop that. You think they would to protect their fees.

    Well, this guy did it to me once about three months ago, and I've never bid in his auctions since. I also told him that, and why. He gave me some BS about he couldn't find the set. Yeah, he can never find any sets that don't get decent bids.

  • Guys got 5900 feedback, with less than 50 being neg. Most of the negative comments, are about the seller pulling the auction in the last seconds.

    Most snipe programs pull the trigger in the last 10 seconds. He pulls the auction after that.

  • You know what else is crappy... if you click on "Feedback about others" on the feedback page; You'll see he's only left a grand total of 142 feedback. For him having almost 6,000 transactions, I find that pretty sad. But whatever, it's his choice.
