They don't wanna risk driving the price up early
So they'll just watch it and if it stays cheap they try and snipe it at the end
Pretty sure there's apps for that
Where you can select a bunch of auctions for the app to watch
With a max you wanna spend
esniper
And as they're each about to end it tries to snipe them for you
Aimbots
source is simple to read and easy to modify
the defaults are quite conservative
I dindu a lot of eBay auctions
I just know it's a thing /shrug
automated ebay sniping used to be a fun thing in the old days
it's kinda pointless now
the buyitnow prices for a lot of things is generally about the same as if you actually did auction
people are bad at searching
i guess it's worth it when you find things that are badly listed
Auctions are still good at long as you're not trying to buy some meme flipping item
right anything low demand ... which is a really really long tail
stupid shit like cast iron pans go for so much
because of that secondary market blew up
Cast iron pans are god tier cookware tho
yep
and the old wagnerware stuff is basically amazeballs compared to a shitty lodge if not just for the weight alone
And polish
All smooth and shit
But even lodge is decent
there's a few chink brands of cast iron but they all follow the same stupid Lodge mold of rough surface and heavvvvvy as fuck weight
it's okey
i'm glad lodge and chink brands like VonShef exist
Just season up like 10 layers and it's smooth anyways
idk what the success rate is for most but it took me a few tries to even understand what good seasoning was
there's... a lot of bad knowledge out there
Yea
The trick is using an oil with a low smoking point
But obv being able to do it in an oven is a bonus
I got a basically chinkshit wok that can't go in the oven
It was a bitch to season on the stovs
