![]() | iPod Touch and Flip£1.01 for an iPod Touch from Little Bid Tasty and 6p for a Flip video camera - just crazy Took the BT on both of them and waiting for the flip to go through. Not so much a freebie but I'll post the proof pics to verify that FJ is a legit company for your proof pages. Thanks FJ/LBT people!

![]() | Yes please share your tip. I was thinking about doing LBT for my next offer. Also do you think I could win something with just a $10 bid pack |

FreebieJeebies provide a lovely little tool once the auction ends. Another little clue for you is its built in flash, if you can't find it now your just not doing your research. My "Tip" is literally pot luck, at any point I could lose and would have wasted a lot of money.

![]() | They only do what I have done lol. Not being sarcastic but do people actually think they can place a few random bids and win? It is entirely possible but very very unlikely. My hint is don't think of it as getting a 100 gift for 1p think of it as getting it for £70.01

Works well until you don't win the £100 gift after spending £70 of bids though.

![]() | Kent and Shad don't tend to go over the 80% limit, in fact they go way under that. Yes there is always a risk involved. I always only bet enough to break even with the 80% I will never go over that Kent and Shad as far as I know don't take the items, they'd need a warehouse.

I spent an hour leeching and reverse-engineering the sourcecode to try and get this to work. The flash program "FusionCharts" (ScrollColumn2D.swf) pulls the data from a XML source routed through charts.php, which reads from the database. If you feed it a "closed" auction, it spits out a complete dataset: Code: <dataset> <set value="2" tooltext="Bid Amount: 0.01 -- Number of Bids: 2"/> <set value="2" tooltext="Bid Amount: 0.02 --

| Currently: Moderating! | He did say 'tool after the auction'. So perhaps it's a case of analysing that data and betting accordingly for the next one?! I've no idea after I gave up on it. And I'd have to be pretty sure I'd win to risk £70 odd on it!
