    Here's the link to the site. You can even try it for free. There's a link to that on the left side of the home page. Don't worry, this is a 100% secure site. I have been using this for years, and I've never heard of anyone having problems.

    Waiting until last second works great----If you have availability to get on a computer. Between work, 2nd job, dropping kids off, picking kids up, getting them ready for bed, etc, not much time left. Not to mention the fact that with four people in the house, two being computer literate girls, I have to fight for my time on the computer. lol

    I think what you should do is look for "Lots" of cards you are seeking. Type in your wants, like Mets or Strawberry. Once to the list, look for "Lots" on the left hand side. Always seems to me to be the best way to get the most for least. Unless I am dead set on an auction, I rarely snipe. I do like Wayne and set what I wanna pay and bid. If someone wants it more, so be it.

    Here is a perfect example. Picked this lot up yesterday, winning bid- $2.26. The Starlin books for $15, the Ike for $10, Victor Martinez is $6 and the other two are $4. When bidding, I was really only interested in the Ike, found out it booked for $10 and made my bid. Pleasantly surprised at the BV of the others.

    ...and here's another example...although the bidding isn't over....

    There is a Kyle Busch 2011 FanFare Green Emerald #/25 that the wife needs for her PC.

    I offered the guy $20.00, plus his shipping if he would end the auction now.

    He replied back that he wanted to let it play out.....less than 12 hours left.....and I am the high bidder at 99 cents!

    So basically this guy has cost himself money.

    (Yeah, I know it could go up, but honestly.....a seven day auction and only ONE bidder.....chances are I'm going to steal this!).
