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.

July 2002: If you had bought $1000.00 worth of Nortel stock one year ago, it would now be worth $49.00. Enron, $16.50 left. Worldcom, $5.00 left. If you had bought $1,000.00 worth of Budweiser beer one year ago, drank it all and turned in the cans for the 10 cent deposit, you would have $214.00. Based on the above, my current investment advice is to drink heavily and recycle.

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.
