Decide what it's worth to you - remembering to check how much for postage - and bid that immediately, then go away and forget about it. You can't win a bidding war against "sniping" software, and there's no point trying anyway, coz ebay will do the bidding for you, up to your stated maximum bid. If you get an email saying you won, hurrah. If you get an email saying you lost, there'll be another along in a minute. Don't forget to check for cheap retailers on the web - sometimes 2nd hand on ebay costs more than new retail, if you hunt around a bit.
