Goofbay inceases your chances of Winning eBay Auctions

I will try not to make this sound like an advert, because it most definitely is not one.

A little while back whilst bidding on eBay auctions, I was finding I was being outbid in the final few seconds of an auction. I would be winning for quite some time and then time and time again, another user would win the item at the death. Initially I just accepted this as part of the process, but then it just started to get plain annoying!

I decided to try and use the same strategy by bidding right near the end. I found this very tricky to time right, sometimes I wasn't available to bid and other times, I just forgot.

Then I found an Auction Sniping tool called Goofbay.

Goofbay offers a FREE auction sniping service. If you open an account with them and fill in the required details, Goofbay automatically bids on your behalf with your maximum bid. You can even set the bid to happen within 2 seconds of the end. Nobody has much chance of responding to a bid placed 2 seconds before the end.

I was dubious at first and little concerned about typing in sensitive information to people I didn't even know who were running a Free service. To apply the bids for you, Goofbay require your eBay password.

I need not have been worried at all. The service worked beautifully and I was now winning items at great prices!

If you are experiencing similar problems and always being outbid right near the end, I would strongly recommend Goofbay. I found their service to be both safe and extremely reliable.

Placing the snipes is also very easy. You just need the eBay listing number, the amount you are willing to bid and when you want to bid. Not only that, Goofbay will send you emails when the bidding has gone above your entered amount!

Overall, I have been very impressed.

The Football Premiership - Spurs off the Bottom... at last

Another week, another win for Tottenham in this great reversal of fortune.

New manager, Harry Redknapp is the man !!!

Manchester City 1 - 2 Tottenham Hotspur

That will do nicely !!!

Brazilian Robinho scored first for City in the 16th minute, finding the net from point-blank range. That thankfully was the end of their tally as resurgent Tottenham were to come back strongly.

Manchester City deservedly had Gelson Fernandes sent off for a clumsy challenge and the home side were down to just 10 men. It was now a very different game.

A rejuventated Darren Bent scored a brilliant individual goal in the 30th and from here the game was Tottenham's to be won.

Bent added a second goal in the 64th and the victory was sealed when City had yet another man sent off. Tottenham had Assou-Ekoto sent off in the 87th, but by that the time the game was already won. 2-1 to Tottenham and 3 much needed points.

Spurs finally climb out the relegation zone to 17th. It looks as if they will finish the season about mid-table. One wishes Harry Redknapp had turned up a lot earlier. Under Redknapp's command Tottenham Hotspur are a completely different animal.

BBC Strictly - Week 4 - Cherie serious contender

She wasn't favoured before in the competition, but Cherie Lunghi's first two performances in BBC's Strictly Come Dancing Series 6, have been very impressive. Saturday she again performed almost flawlessly to top the Leaderboard after the Judges Votes.

Significantly, she has outscored favoured Rachel Stevens in both performances and seems more than a match for the two favoured men, Austin Healey and Tom Chambers. It seems very likely that the viewers votes are going to end up playing a major part on who the eventual winner will be.

If the competition continues in this vein, the final four left in will be Austin Healey, Tom Chambers, Rachel Stevens and Cherie Lunghi. John Sergeant is the enigma. Clearly no where near as good as these four, his popularity with the voting public is close to awesome. John could possibly spring a similar shock to Julian Clary did a few years back by reaching the final despite not technically being the best dancer.

BBC Strictly - Week 3, Rachel looking good

Despite being outscored by fellow contestant, Cherie Lunghi, Rachel Stevens still remains favourite of the women to take the title. She is bound to improve through the weeks and probably has the most scope for doing so. Her first showing, dancing the Salsa, was a solid performance.

Week 3 sees the men dance for the second time.
