I was trying to get both Resident evil 0 and 1 today from the same seller for gamecube and some complete bastard bid in the last 10 seconds to rob me of one of them.

God dam bastard I've been watching that fucking auction all day and get robbed like that. Means I gonna have to pay twice for Postage and will get RE 1 before 0 which I'll have to get elsewhere thats great, just great. Ruined my easter break.

yes with a completely different set of cheatcodes.

oh and it's called sniping btw. now if you wanna beat that, you can only snipe back the last few seconds.

welcome to the real world of competitive online bidding!

Heh. If we're talking about eBay, here, Amigo, there's a handy site I found, I forget the name of the thing, it's like Bidsniper, but it automatically puts in a bid at the last, like, 5 minutes. Search for it over a webfinder, and I'm sure you'll find it.
