but here's the thing to bidding that way.. you may have been willing to only pay 20 or 30 for those shoes thats right now sitting at 25 but the other person's max bid is at 50 because they were willing to pay that much for them.. now with your 125 bid you win at 51 but paid 21 dollars over what you wanted to...
Yes, this would not work if you truly have a hard cap on what you're willing to spend. Even if $50 dollars is a super steal but you can only afford to do 30, this would not work. You would have to be a bit flexible with the price. Should have mentioned that.
@@CjcityTv Glad you answered this dude! I guess there's no way to know what number you gotta put with 6 seconds left. If the item is worth $100 and the current bid is $20, you have no idea what max bid number to put to win it, certainly you dont want to put $1000 because the current highest bidders max bid might be $250 and you screw yourself!
Just put the max as the absolute max that you are willing to spend on that item in the case that another bidder is close. Another tip is to add about .05 to .10 cents to your max bid Incase someone matches your max bid to the dollar.
please someone explains is this method is applicable with much higher amount let’s 5k to even 10k$?! The item am watching costs 20000$ and still won’t find it anywhere…anyhow the bid now is at 4K @ 92 bids ending in 48h Shall I use the 100 trick as n this vid or actually 1000 ?! am welling to pay up to 10k$ no issue😩
I won!!!! Thank you so much for your tips & tricks 🙏🏼 I placed my bid 3 seconds before the other bidder & still won because mine was higher & the other person didn’t have time to place another bid. Thank you thank you 😊
Good advice. A lot of people are quite naïve when it comes to buying on ebay. Your first point was quite important. Only bid at the last possible moment. The only reason you would bid any earlier is if you are busy at time of listing ending. Otherwise you are just telling other people that you are interested, and that changes their buying tactics. Not sure I agree with your bidding $100 over the existing price/bid though! My tactic is to just bid what you'd be willing to pay for it. Its therefore 100% risk free.
Yeah, that 100 dollar method is only for those who want to win by any means. Sometimes you might find a rare fragrance, or the perfect watch that you can not lose out on. That method is only for those would want to win by any means and hate losing bids lol
Heyooo I just won my first auction! Ebay does charge you *1 increment* more then the max bid, in my case, 3 dollars. Starting was 100, someone put 105, I put 135.76 and got it for 108! :D Cheers!
Ive been applying this system on my own for since I started buying on ebay.. and it has worked for me. I have never lost on an item that i really want... It boils down to how bad I want something vs how bad the other person wants something and who who is willing to pay more... I strike hard and fast in the last few seconds. I don't give them time to marinate or responding on my bid in the last 2-3 seconds.
I really appreciate the recorded example showing you didn't actually have to spend the $100 over the bid. Good to know that strategy in case I see something I REALLY want pops up. It does bring up a funny hypothetical where you and just one other person end up doing the same thing and wind up overpaying waaay over that mark... maybe if I do $99 over the bid the other guy will get stuck with the $100 bill 😂
Sometimes new sellers that only have 2 items sold really DO NOT have much to sell, and are just new. You can get something at great price from them , because they just want to sell fast and not into competition game... Its a risk, but I got some rare cool perfumes from occasional sellers that just only had 2 perfumes to sell
Thanks for sharing the knowledge and for the live examples. Appreciate your work. Obviously, gotta do homework on max price before using this method, but a winner every single time. Nice. :)
That sounds great, but if my competition watched your video here and also $100 more, then it seems someone is gonna get stuck paying $100 more for the item if both $100+ bids register right after one another. No?
Yo CJ, I am waiting almost 2 months on the review of Riparian (initio side effect) of the house Parfum vintage and a side by side comparison between dark knight (Alexandria fragrances) and Halcyon (Parfum Vintage). Please make it happen 🔥
Yo City! Thanks for putting this out there. I really got a lot out of your last eBay video but eBay has always seemed sketchy to me. Time to give it a try now! I appreciate you bro! Any chance we can get an update on who your go to eBay sellers are for decants/full bottles?
I have forfeited a lot of Bids due to this,I forfeited a bid for a "Straw Boater Hat" that was excruciatingly painful, this video is Heaven sent. This information definitely worth paying for. Thanks a Bazillion mehn.
yeah that has heppened to me too many times as well. I missed out on so much stuff i really wanted. I was willing to pay whatever for it but just kept getting outbid.. Never again though lol
So what if another guys max bid is greater than yours. Its possible that you could be over paying especially if someone else has a fake account and placing max bids
What if the next highest bidder who bids just before (7s left) you (6s left) put in like $100 for example and you bid $120 for example. Would you then have to pay $101?
But if no one has done any bids. For example, the price an item is 38$ snd no bids If I but 100 $, what gonna happen in this case? Does the system makes me win of 39$ or it will cost me 100$?
Can you outbid yourself? For example I have a highest bid right now of 75 but there is another bidder not sure whether they will try to out bid me. If I currently have highest bid at 75 and place a bid within the last 5 seconds at 175 will I pay that price if no one else bids?
1st time eBay user. I searched for my item and a ton of listings appeared. Then, I tried to select Auction but the button is not enabled. What am i doing wrong?
@@alexisjnr Bummer! The seller is a scammer. Sent my package to the wrong address. After I won the bidding, another buyer shared how this seller also scammed them and shipped to the wrong address. 😕
indeed! You can catch alot of people slipping this way and get some great deals. I just did the headphones as an example but they turned out to be wireless with a good range, even that seems like a still for 10 bucks lol
Sir I don't want to auction it. How does my eBay listing get auctioned automatically? I want the auction to be closed forever. Where will this setting be done? I want to buy it now. Someone please help me
why would an item disappear before the time counts down? today i was waiting for something to count down and about 5 mins before time it disapearred. and then i said ill get the next ending bidding item and it was supposed to end tomorrow early and today it already disappeared. coudl it be that those items had the option of best offer?
If someone is doing what yer doing and they submit say, $100 at the same time you put in $105, are you then paying $101, or does the other bidder's bid get negated altogether?
@@dinkydoo112 And I watched "shill bidding" vids re comic bks for hours last nite. Then I checked three auctions: one was all private bidders which makes for easy shilling, one ended prematurely creating an extreme low outlier, another ended w/an over inflated price creating a false inflation of the mkt. You can't really do anything to fight this; it's up to ebay, and they would if they wanted to, but they don't. PVT BIDDING SHOULDN'T BE ALLOWED.

Hey Cj great video. You do the same with items price is more than 1,000…?
Just put the max as the absolute max that you are willing to spend on that item in the case that another bidder is close. Another tip is to add about .05 to .10 cents to your max bid Incase someone matches your max bid to the dollar.

Shall I use the 100 trick as n this vid or actually 1000 ?!
am welling to pay up to 10k$ no issue😩
Until you run into people using the same strat and you pay $100 more than you wanted to...
I think this strategy is a bit of a gamble so it really depends on how risk adverse you are. Also if you feel others will bid $100 max, maybe do $99 😂
I won!!!! Thank you so much for your tips & tricks 🙏🏼 I placed my bid 3 seconds before the other bidder & still won because mine was higher & the other person didn’t have time to place another bid. Thank you thank you 😊
I followed your strategy and won an auction, I went in 1 min early and still won. You just earned yourself a new subscriber... The guy is super legit.

This is easily one of the most helpful videos I have ever seen. Thank you
Just watched your video early this morning and tried as you said. For my item I saved over $1900 on my item. Many thanks. A job well done!!😊😆
Just applied ur method of the $100 and won!! Thank you! Skeptical no more!
Damn, this guy is really legit. I just won a brand new Pro-Ject record player through an auction at 40% off it's original value. Thanks so much!!
But what happens if another person uses that method at the same time? Won’t that mean that now one of you is gonna have to pay 100 dollars more?
Yes it does...funny he doesn't address that
I literally just did this and it worked perfectly 💪🏽 thanks for the info brotha!
Good thing to know some reviewers trust EBay. People just have to do their research on the seller
100%. Especially if you find a good seller with a low auction.. Thats the killer combo. Im winning everytime lol
@@CjcityTv damn right when I got your response I accidentally pressed confirm and pay on a $500 frag haul. Scared the shit out of me
Great stuff man, you’re too underrated!
YT just recommended your channel to me. Good vid. subbed.
Your video quality is on point 😮
I have definitely learnt something new today about eBay bidding, I appreciate it dude!
Thanks for sharing this cool secret of winning a bid, I'm super grateful
Thank you! I just won a Thinkpad I was all over about. Would not have happened if it wasn't for your help. Keep it up bro!
My man you’re a RUclips technician! Many thanks for the help.
Thanks for sharing the knowledge and for the live examples. Appreciate your work. Obviously, gotta do homework on max price before using this method, but a winner every single time. Nice. :)
What if the item is $1500? If I bid $2500 at the last second and the second highest bidder bid $1700 would I only pay $1701?
You just made me win with this technique!! 🎉
Wow! EXCELLENT tip & content! I JUST did this (well a slightly modified version since I was scared lol - went like $60 up) and WON!
How much more did u have to pay then what u wanted did u pay 60$ more ?
Wow, you don’t know how helpful this is!! Coming back with a testimony!!
That sounds great, but if my competition watched your video here and also $100 more, then it seems someone is gonna get stuck paying $100 more for the item if both $100+ bids register right after one another. No?
Thank you for the tips CJ
You rock brother!
If you are bidding against someone else who uses this same technique, one of you is going to pay £100 for £5 baseball cards hahahaha
Okay it’s ya boy Cj city !!! Keep it up
Thank you thank you!!! I just did it and won!
Thank you for sharing your wisdom with us. Does the $100 rule work in all cases? What if the item is $700. I will not be ending up paying $100 more?
Exactly, I would love to know this🤔👀👀
Very cool! Gonna try this right now😀
Bruh thanks to you n ya video I’ve legit bought every single PlayStation in their OG box with games between September n now. Appreciate my Boy💯💯💯👌🏾
this is an eye opener to me. can i pay later when my bid is approved?
Thank you for the helpful lesson and 101 on eBay!! It works every time ❤!! Appreciate it 🎉
does this trick works now as well ????
Thank you I appreciate your knowledge
BRO WTF!?!?!?! I salute you for this one!!! I am ooooooooooon it!!!!!
How do you handle the Auto-bids?
Hey @CjCityTv is it still the same 2 years later? I watched this video all the way through and understood everything.
Good info. I also look to see where it's coming from.
oh, absolutely! I filter mine by US only and don't even waste time lol
Will it work in eBay UK paid in British £?
Bro, I just won a bid on a mini skid steer. Thank you.
This the content we needed!! Dope stuff again CJ 🔥
Glad to help fam!
Great, Thank you for information
Glad that I subscribed to this channel🔥
Glad to help out there bro. Now you can get some steals!
Yo CJ, I am waiting almost 2 months on the review of Riparian (initio side effect) of the house Parfum vintage and a side by side comparison between dark knight (Alexandria fragrances) and Halcyon (Parfum Vintage). Please make it happen 🔥
Yo City! Thanks for putting this out there. I really got a lot out of your last eBay video but eBay has always seemed sketchy to me. Time to give it a try now! I appreciate you bro! Any chance we can get an update on who your go to eBay sellers are for decants/full bottles?
The first video to explain this
still works in 2023 thanks! greetings from chile.
I have forfeited a lot of Bids due to this,I forfeited a bid for a "Straw Boater Hat" that was excruciatingly painful, this video is Heaven sent. This information definitely worth paying for. Thanks a Bazillion mehn.
yeah that has heppened to me too many times as well. I missed out on so much stuff i really wanted. I was willing to pay whatever for it but just kept getting outbid.. Never again though lol
@@CjcityTv You're one step ahead.I keep wondering how you discovered such algorithm. Bless-up bro and let the good contents stay unabated 💪
I'm constantly getting out bid on sport cards can't stand it...I'm going crazy but honestly nervous to try it...... Just bid $100 Last minute.....
What if the other bidder has same strategy of bid 100 over? Do i just do 225 like some random number? Will i be stuck paying his 100 plus 1 more?
So what if another guys max bid is greater than yours. Its possible that you could be over paying especially if someone else has a fake account and placing max bids
Good review CJ I scored Lattafa Blue Oud out of India for 18.00 100ml a steal !! Great seller
What if the next highest bidder who bids just before (7s left) you (6s left) put in like $100 for example and you bid $120 for example. Would you then have to pay $101?
Unfortunately yes🤭😬😬😬
That's why you only bid what you're willing to pay for the item.
But if no one has done any bids. For example, the price an item is 38$ snd no bids If I but 100 $, what gonna happen in this case?
Does the system makes me win of 39$ or it will cost me 100$?
Thanks for the advice man ❤️
Is Buy Now negotiable?
Great inside tricks I learned a lot. Legit vid!
Excelent video, thank you !
Anytime fam! Got to look out for you guys!
What if the item is over 100 dollars can you still use the 100 dollar trick and does it still work currently?
Yes
Can you outbid yourself? For example I have a highest bid right now of 75 but there is another bidder not sure whether they will try to out bid me. If I currently have highest bid at 75 and place a bid within the last 5 seconds at 175 will I pay that price if no one else bids?
1st time eBay user. I searched for my item and a ton of listings appeared. Then, I tried to select Auction but the button is not enabled. What am i doing wrong?
Great feedback. I am interested in an item that ends tomorrow, so the $100 over the price advice is greatly appreciated.
did you win??
@@alexisjnr Thanks for the follow up! Yes, I did win. I did cut it close and submitted my big at 1 second. 😳
@@alexisjnr Bummer! The seller is a scammer. Sent my package to the wrong address. After I won the bidding, another buyer shared how this seller also scammed them and shipped to the wrong address. 😕
i have a question , if an item was example 600$ how much need to plusto that for win the bid? 700$?
Great video man, like it
Nice tips. And DOPE t-shirt 👊
Thanks bro! I like to see how many people actually catch the metaphor on the shirt! lol That's dope you caught it
What happens if nobody else makes a bid? Then you’re stuck with the bid you made and have to pay, correct?
Thank you for info.
Please I’m not sure I understand the explanation fully. Does the $100 above the max bid apply to products worth 100s and 1000s of dollars?
Yes 👏 yea
Anything but you have to want this item bad and of course make sure you're willing to spend what the item is being sold for in the first place.
Bro, where did you get that shirt?
That's awesome.
Needed this type of video and content
Having issues on placing bid, any help
Does it work the same if you enter $500 or more?
Love the video bro stay motivated Dream big 1 mill on the way
Just won a card I was trying to get using this method. 10/10 would recommend.
Great video! Great info for saving money.
indeed! You can catch alot of people slipping this way and get some great deals. I just did the headphones as an example but they turned out to be wireless with a good range, even that seems like a still for 10 bucks lol
I did this and won! Thank you💞🙏🏾
Sweet, yesterday someone did that trick on me for a laptop at the last moment hahah good tips
Dope info man, thank you for the information.
Sir I don't want to auction it. How does my eBay listing get auctioned automatically? I want the auction to be closed forever. Where will this setting be done? I want to buy it now. Someone please help me
To buy the item, why didn't you just click on buy it now but instead you first added it to Cart?? Why did you do that?
@cjcitytv what’s your opinion of ediscountperfumes on eBay
Excellent video and information!!!!
Thanks bro! Hopefully it helps you guys get some authentic fragrances for some steals!
why would an item disappear before the time counts down? today i was waiting for something to count down and about 5 mins before time it disapearred. and then i said ill get the next ending bidding item and it was supposed to end tomorrow early and today it already disappeared. coudl it be that those items had the option of best offer?
Love the shirt, I’ve got the same one as a hoodie
Does this work for items over $100 say $1200?? Is it the same technique?
theres an item i really want but the seller has no feedback...what's the risk?
So with any item, if I bid over $100 more than the current bidder then I will only pay the price of the current bidder with an extra dollar?
Yes. It works that way exactly.
Thank you for infos.
loving the T Shirt
What if someone else is using the same method? They bid 110 and you go 115 now you’ve just bought a pop socket for $111. A win is a win i suppose 😬
great vid. thanks.
Great info!
Thanks bro. Hopefully it helps you out moving forward
If someone is doing what yer doing and they submit say, $100 at the same time you put in $105, are you then paying $101, or does the other bidder's bid get negated altogether?
