eBay - bidding in final minutes (seconds) WAS: manual

Bidding in the final minutes of an eBay auction is often the norm, not the
exception. This type of bidder is known as a sniper. Some sellers cancel
sniper's bids.
Recently, prospective eBay bidders have asked OIC members if they intend to
bid on certain eBay auctions for the reason you mentioned below: if you're
outbid on an auction, it may as well be to an OIC member rather than drive
the price up unnecessarily.
I have a 1964 Chrysler & Imperial Technical Service Manual.
[Car-record(291) isn't I.] If you need anything copied from it, please let
me know.
Thanks,
Rich

Subject: IML: manual
Greetings, list--
Was trying to obtain the '1964 Chrysler-Imperial Technical Service Manual'
(TSM) on e-bay yesterday. However, in the last one hour I was outbid by one
"car-record(291)." Guess I'm just sorry that I am not well-heeled enough to
have continued the bidding in the last 5 minutes! Any way, if
"car-record(291)" is a member of the list, then I won't be too upset --
other than I would have liked to have gotten this manual. e-bay number was
1809466954; started at $9.95 but in last hour it really shot up! Is this
normal??
Secondarily, was the Hood Silencer Pad standard or optional on a 64? There
are no visible clips nor markings under the hood where one might have been.
A/C pulley-clutch & fuel sending unit for 64 Crown?
Thanks, later ne
