Help me out here cuz, there was a military style with a black face and a web band that was pretty reasonable last time it came up.

Are you suggesting we come down to your place once you get them thawed and smoked and help you eat those bad boys?

Seiko 5 Automatic MILITARY WATCH SNK809 SNK809K2

It took forever to find one in black, first time I've bought something off ebay, we'll see how it goes in a week.

It's not really silver, but ZSL paid for it, good enough for me.

The first time you've bought off eBay?

Wow, thanks for sharing!

-just remember... read the seller's feedback before buying.

a) Sellers with less than perfect scores that rebut negative feedback
with legitimate points and go uncontested are usually decent and show a willingness to communicate.

b) Pay attention to the shipping fees.
If something is priced low and there are no bidders getting on in the auction,
see if shipping is jacked 2-3x so a seller can minimize the "final value fee".

c) It doesn't matter who leads over the course of the auction,
just who wins in the end.
Think of it as a poker game, you wouldn't want to show your hand at the deal would you?
Wait until the end of the auction to bid seriously, preferably within the last 30 seconds (15 if you have a fast connection).
You can always tell a noob's involved by the # of bids racked up.
If you click on the bid #, you will see them bidding up $1 or $5 at a time, 5, 10, sometimes 15 bids.
In the old days, when user names were displayed, you could track these boneheads and mess with them.
They would bid like crazy to be on top, then the old bulls would go buy the identical item for less,
knowing the noob was stuck by their lonesome in an inflated auction of their own making.
fyi- I NeVeR did that! LoL.

You can tell a good, serious auction, by serious bidders looking for the best price on a desirable item by noting the bid increments.
May folks will put a "placeholder" bid on an item to keep an eye on it in their buying list.
If the auction progresses within a few dollar increments and attracts quite a few bidders,
then you have got some serious competition on your hands, and you know the item is most likely fairly priced given it's level of desirability.

GL, and congrats on losing your eBay Virginity!
I'm telling your Mom!

 

[burrocrat]

Yes, first time. And it only took 3 days for everyone to get theirs. That's some pretty good action in my book.

I just did the buy it now for $79.99 shipping included thing. My budget was $100 so I saved $20. Besides, I've spent $100 on worse things and only got an hour, this thing's got 24 of 'em, and you don't even have to wind it up first.

I can't quit staring at it, 'oh baby, take a look at myself'.

Oh man, So much to work with..:laugh:...

But, depending on which wrist you wear it on, be careful not to over wind it.

Well, it does seem to be running a little fast, and I'm right handed.

Do you think maybe I'm wearing it wrong?

I should go read the instructions again, I was in such a hurry the first time I only looked at the pictures.

And they were in Japanese.

 

[nnuut]

Well, what time is it?

 

[Buster]

Can you post a picture of it while you are winding it?..That may help us determine if you are wearing it correctly..

Burro, If your right handed maybe you bought a left handed watch by mistake.

 

[Buster]

As funny as it may seem..most brands do make a Lefthanded watch

 

[Steel_Magnolia]

I collect watches and clocks. But my favorite wristwatch is too heavy to wear! It's a women's Casio solar atomic watch that I bought in 2005.

They now have Baby G versions of the watch that are smaller and lighter. <sigh> But I just keep mine on the bathroom counter and use it to check all my other timepieces to make sure they are set correctly.

Time fetish? Probably. Just one of many. <big grin>
