if you are the winning bidder email automatically gets sent to buyer and seller..But doesn't hurt to get in touch to......

don't bid on stuff till last few hrs in my opinion.....just keep a watch on it...

yes decide how much you are willing to pay maximum.watch the auction then with about a minute left put in the highest bid your willing to pay .the proxy bidder will work and you will only increase the price to a pound above the highest bid so far ,but then for ny one to out bid you they must outbid the highest price which you are willing to pay ,they wont know what t is obviously.say you put highest bid your willing is 20 and the item is on 14 .it will go to 15 but remember your high bid ,so if someone bids 16 you will still be winning but you will now hve to pay 16 pounds that will continue to 21 ,id this is bid ,thn you are outbid

o hope you got that

I enter the amount and keep refreshing the auction. When it says there are 10 seconds or less showing enter the bid

Nearly works everytime

NEVER bid before it's nearing the end

Enter the amount that you're prepared to pay, if you get outbid its because you didn't want to spend that much - simple!
