You sell $100 FV of pennies for $76 and 20 dollar shipping. You still have to ship , pay your eBay and Paypal fees.

How is the seller making money?

Those was my pennies....LOL

I bid 73.21 with 8 seconds left, then someone bid 75, then you bid 76.

Did you snipe or did ebay bid by proxy for you?

Sniped it the old fashioned way. With eBay Bucks and Mr. Rebates, I came out nicely ahead.
