Yeah that can be frustrating however, bidding days, hours and or minutes before the end of an auction just drives the price up for everyone. Keep your eyes open the exhaust you want will be auctioned again. Now you have some additional information to stratify with.

I usually win on ebay by not bidding until the last 15 seconds. You need to bid the maximum you are willing to spend. If you loose you need to realize it was more than it was worth to you, so no harm done.
I will be listing carbon Devil high mount slip ons soon. They are in perfect condition.

works really well. you can program the price and the time you want the bid placed. best thing is it keeps you from getting caught up in the bidding frenzy and going way above what is sane price. you decide first, set it and forget it till auction end. I have only lost using this when the price went above what I thought was a fair price or my max price.

I agree, although I use EZsniper, probably works the same way, you plug your max bid in and it bids for you in the closing seconds of an auction. No sitting up in the middle of the night waiting for an auction to end.

Thats a cool option for bidding, will have to try it. I always just put a buy it now price when I list, would rather just get a fair price now than wait.

I was only after the header. Is it true that aftermarket header doesn't add much???

I agree most of the sniper services probably do the same. I was skeptical but after switching now I never buy by bidding except using it. Saves money and time. I also use buy it now like smokinjoe said if its a part I have to have now and the price is fair.

Jeezus H. Krist..... there is a forum member here who has been trying to part with a full Yosh system for like two weeks now, a set-up that is likely superior in virtually every way to the Two Bros set-up and is ONLY asking $400!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

https://www.superhawkforum.com/forum...ad.php?t=24586

Sometimes I just can`t figure people out........

This!

If I were getting an exhaust, this is what I would do! But my pennies are spent on home ownership now

Yep. I bought them from a member here and never got around to installing them. as soon as I take fresh pics I'll post 'em. I also have a few other parts.

There are 6' piles of snow and ice around the garage. As soon as I dig my way to it I'll drag them into the sunshine for pics.

I use this one all the time. It is the only way I will bid. The only problem is, that sometimes I forget that I have that working in the background and forget to either check my email or ebay. First three snipes are free, if you have one of us refer you, we also get a free snipe. It literally cost pennies on the dollar. $5 has lasted me over 1 year of bidding.

Its the only method that really works. I have never lost an auction that did not go over what I was willing to pay using this mmethod. It is the cruel truth.
