How does bidding work on eBay?
Bidding on eBay works by allowing users to place a monetary value on an item they are interested in purchasing. When a user places a bid on an item, they are stating the maximum amount they are willing to pay for it. Other users can then place higher bids, and the price of the item increases accordingly. The highest bidder at the end of the auction wins the item and is obligated to complete the purchase. If a bid is placed in the final moments of the auction, the auction may be extended to allow other users to place counter bids.

Do eBay bidding agents still work?
eBay bidding agents, also known as sniping tools, can still be effective in winning auctions. These tools automatically place a bid on an item just seconds before the auction ends, which can help avoid bidding wars and increase the chances of winning at a lower price. However, it's important to note that eBay has implemented measures to prevent sniping, such as extending the auction time if a bid is placed in the final moments. Therefore, while bidding agents can still work, it's not a guaranteed strategy for winning auctions on eBay.

What is the bidding strategy on eBay?
The bidding strategy on eBay involves placing a bid on an item that you are interested in purchasing. You can either place a single bid or use the "automatic bidding" feature, which allows you to set a maximum bid amount and let eBay's system automatically increase your bid in small increments as other bidders place their bids. This strategy helps you stay competitive in the bidding process without having to constantly monitor the auction. It's important to carefully consider your maximum bid amount and timing of your bids to increase your chances of winning the auction at a price you are comfortable with.

Does eBay offer automatic or manual bidding?
eBay offers both automatic and manual bidding options for its users. With automatic bidding, users can set a maximum bid amount, and eBay's system will automatically increase their bid in small increments as needed to keep them as the highest bidder, up to their maximum amount. On the other hand, manual bidding allows users to place individual bids on items without setting a maximum bid amount. This gives users more control over their bidding strategy and allows them to actively participate in the bidding process.

Why is nobody seriously bidding on eBay?
There could be several reasons why nobody is seriously bidding on eBay. One possibility is that the item being auctioned may not be in high demand or may be overpriced. Another reason could be that potential bidders are waiting until the last minute to place their bids, a strategy known as "sniping."
