Just bid with 3 secs to go on this card.

Saw I was winning at $9, then BOOM, lost by one bid with a second to go.

How bad a shiller is this guy! Within 1min, I get a second chance offer email for $1 under the ending amount, $26.

Im happy to pay the $9, but clearly this seller, who also has a rating of 3, shilled me up to it.

What do I do. low numbered cards that I really want, but I hate people like this.

Also why cant I bring up a bid history????

I want to simply reply "I know a shiller when I see one f^&*khead"

Card's been relisted, that link only shows active auction.

Definite case of shilling you up with that 2nd chance offer after auction end.

What about this link?

Not only that, he has relisted it for 24hrs, yet my second chance offer expires in 48hrs....

So theoretically, someone could buy it, then I could accept the second chance offer later.... who gets the card then???

Im so annoyed with scammers. Shouldnt I only have to pay $1 more than the bidder below me.

Second chance offers are so flawed!

That is a sucky situation to be in. I would more them likely just take it if I don't mind the price, cause I know what it's like to pass on something and then never see it again.

Oh thank goodness I decided not to bid on this as part of the T-Mac PC.

I wouldn't stress, there's heaps of these cards being busted - both versions and have seen them listed cheaper than your $9 too. If the new auction goes too high, just grab some one else's when you see it. If you let it get to you you'll lose the enjoyment factor to this hobby!
