But I rarely ever need things that soon. So I bid If it goes past what I am willing to pay oh well. I let it go. and wait for the next one. Also doesn't buy it now disappear after someone makes the first bid? Or is this only on some items. Cause I know once I placed the bid for the the spawn alley. They Buy it now option went away.

That isn't what I meant. What I'm saying is that there are times when there are other items from other sellers at a lower Buy It Now price than their final bid price. They could've just bought the Buy It Now from someone else for less but for whatever reason chose to battle it out.

Example JohnnySeller59 has Giganta with a starting price of .99 in a 7 Day Auction, TimmySeller83 has a Buy It Now for Giganta at $100, 6 and a half days past and Giganta is at around $86, closing minutes of the auction, people go nuts, 10 minutes left, it goes to $98, 1 minute left, it goes to $160?? Finally ends at $170ish. Ok.. Did no one bother checking in the last 7 days the auction with the Giganta at a Buy It Now for $100??
