<< <i>No sniping program for me
I like to do it the old fashion way

Agreed, Sniping programs are overrated. If I can't win it, I don't want it!

Check my ebay BIN or Make Offers!!
If you had bid 2 seconds later, you would not have won the coin, because the 5 cents is below the $1 bid increment. A sniping program set for 5 seconds to go would have lost as well.
Shhhhhh! Don't tell 'em it's better to snipe early than late!

I don't get it. Why would he have lost with that bid 2 seconds later? The next highest bidder, 71.00 was probably that bidders max. correct? Why wouldn't have 71.05 won any time during the last 18 seconds if nobody else bid? Does the 1$ increment not kick in till 2 seconds or something ? Thanks in advance, Dana
Incorrect.
He still would have won later because the previous max high bid was $67.52. The $71.00 max bid would not have been the high bid, only $68.52 of it ($67.52 = $1. increment). If the $71.05 bid came later it would have won because the bid was at least $1. more than the current high bid and more than the current high bid's max bid.
