Someone tries to outbid you by bidding in the last two seconds and falls short by two dollars.
I bet he was surprised when he found out he didn't win.

I had a guy try to do that on a card last night, i had set my top bid to 30$, and it was at like 9$ up till the last 30 secs. I ended up paying 27$ for it, that bastard. lol.

This gut was just a little bit too cheap. After all it was a 300 card lot of a well known player.

Not if he was a shill bidder he wasn't.

No, he bid with one second to go. Shill bidders try to get you to bid higher by outbidding you. That's why I usually do one bid and I don't get into a bidding war.
