The trick is wait until there\'s about a minute left then put on a proxy bid about 5 dollars above the price it\'s at. Meh, that didn\'t make alot of sense but you should figure it out.

Try to find dutch auctions.

I got Marvel Vs Capcom 2 and RE: Code: Veronica for about $15 to $20 below retail.

The most expensive game I ever bought was Panzer Dragoon Saga for $100.

I wanna get Medal of Honor: Frontline...but there aren\'t alot of games for sell. I guess I\'ll have to wait a few more weeks. I bought NCAA Football 2002 off Ebay for $30. Not bad.
