A Couple of Tips to Help You with Winning Auctions on eBay:

1) Take the time to write a positive comment about sellers who do what they should and the chances are they'll do the same for you.

2) If you want to pay a fixed price then there are thousands of online stores you could be visiting. It's like pressing 'collect' instead of 'gamble' on a fruit machine: it's the boring option. But then, maybe that's what you want. These rules are relatively constant: there are few times when using Buy it Now would allow you to get something cheaper, or when bidding would be an easier way to do it. In the end, as with so many things in life, it's a simple question of price vs. convenience, and it's up to you. There are those times, though, when the strategic use of the Buy it Now button can be a useful tool to help you outwit your competition. If the current bid is almost as high as the Buy it Now price, then why bid higher and keep the contest going?

3) eBay is an online auction website - and not just any auction site, but the biggest one in the world. If you know how an auction works, then you already know how roughly eBay works. Someone adds something they want to sell to the site, and then buyers come along and place bids on it. The highest bid wins the item! It's that simple. eBay being an online auction makes a big difference, though. Buying and selling are not reserved for any elite. eBay accept almost any item, no matter how small, and will then advertise it on their sites all over the world. It's a powerful combination of an auction and a slightly chaotic marketplace.

4) eBay say they require to "level the playing pasture", to allow eBay businesses to compete with the big chain stores, and they also require to promote PayPal as a payment method. Relatively few purchasers can afford the more expensive items on eBay all at once, and so the introduction of Purchaser's Credit seems likely to fatefully increase prices and sales at the higher end of the market. It is worth noting that you could utilize Purchaser's Credit anywhere PayPal is accepted, not merely on eBay. PayPal say it's "like a credit card - minus the card!" You don't get a card number - you can pay with credit with simply your email address and password.

5) There are millions of items being listed every day on eBay - whatever you want, it'll come around again, and if you don't get it there are plenty more things to buy.

Millions of collectibles, appliances, computers, furniture, equipment, vehicles, and other miscellaneous items are listed, bought, and sold daily. Large international companies, such as IBM, sell their newest products and offer services on eBay using competitive auctions and fixed-priced storefronts.
