Ebay pet peeves.

Oh this is gonna be a fun discussion for an ebay addict like myself! :D I tend to miss the outbid thing by not bidding until around 20 seconds before the auction ends (not reccommended if you have slow or dial up internet lol)... I put in my maximum bid and if I lose it then so be it, because that means I ouldnt have paid as much for the item as it sold for. Pet peeves- I hate it when someone sells the same thing as me and gets say $40 for it and I get $4 or something stupid like that. I hate it when sellers don't bother responding to my question, wont explain ridiculous shipping prices (for example when I know something will fit in a prepaid satchel and cost 5 bucks to send yet they are charging 9 bucks postage or whatever), or won't combine and discount shipping. Ebay has its good points an dbad points, but most of the time it treats me well and Ive made a fair whack of money from it so I wont complain too much...

Everything you mentioned really gets to me. I also hate it when you get the item and it's not what you expected. It matched the description and the picture, but you were still expecting something else... something better. I hate that. I also hate when sellers try to scam buyers. That really bothers me.
