not always the case [feedback]

If you bid on something early and you get out bid just wait till the end and bid at the very end to what you are willing to pay for it not a penny more! Ebay can be a usefull buying tool but there needs to be a good understanding on how it works to YOUR advantage, AL.

Also the hood pictures I recieved from the complaint photos did not look like the smooth looking copy he showed in his ad. He admitted that the hood in the complaint photos was one they had made. The fellow who sent me the pictures was out around 180 in shipping for a defective hood. I was fortunate enough to have told them I was going to pick the hood up. There also was no bidding war as this had a buy it now.
