How Do You Use The "Watch" Function

I use my watch list for sniping purposes. When the coin exceeds my price, it becomes a research watch. I usually wait to place bids until the last 20 seconds or so. Sometimes I'll bid earlier, just to see where I stand.

I use it to snipe and record final price realized. Almost all completed auctions that I'm watching realized a much higher price than I was willing to pay. On rare occasion, the price is much lower. I pay special attention to these to determine if the coin was defective and I hadn't noticed, or the seller set himself/herself up for failure with the listing. Most were closed out at a bad time (I won't divulge efforts of my research ). I now watch these "time slots" more closely.

I love the thrill of sniping in at the last second. Sometimes I hit, sometimes I miss, but the thrill of the kill makes it all worthwhile.

As a rule I never keep more than 5 items in my watch list, so some get nuked if I find something more interesting to stay under the bar.
