This is a total scam. I lost $25; it could've been worse. Don't do it. Don't be tempted by the apparently cheap prices. If you lose the bid, you lose your MONEY. Did you get that? You could only use the money you spent on that bid to purchase the item at retail price which means having to pay $800 for a Gucci bag (same price you pay at the Gucci store). DON'T DO IT.
