I wish I could bid for something but I really don't have any money right now :(.

Plus I'm afraid how much shipping from the US to here will cost me :/

Uncharted 3: Drakes Deception Cover signed by Naughty Dog Robert Cogburn
Come one guys! This is worth at least 10 dollars! If you are a fan of Sony or Naughty Dog at all this item is a great addition to your collection! I mean, can your friends say that they have a Naughty Dogs signature? I don't think so! So why not say you do?

If you make a bid on an item in the last few minutes a few more minutes is added to the item in question. That way you can't snipe items as it gives the previous winning bidder a chance to respond.

Oh heck yes.

Wait, you mean that this would go on at the end of the auction, or this would be a new item? And would you use Skype or what?
