You sound silly zipster. The other tactic is to have 2 accounts. Say, for example there is a pair of nice trainers that you realise will sell £40-£60 in 10 days on auction close - but they've opened @ 99p which attract lots of novices to watch (or to bid £5.55). That puts them on their "My eBay" and desiring to win.
Use one account to bid £25 early , then switch to the other to bid £28. That puts the price to £26 and few of the low scorers will pay any regard to that auction as they're excited of another auction which is sitting at £2.70 (nowhere near the end price). You've reduced the bidding pool!

I can't be going through all that drama for a pair of trainers. I need some asap.
But I may use those sneaky tactics for other stuff.
are you allowed to have 2 accounts? don't they have strict rules about these cheeky tactics? I dont wanna go to prison and get raped.
