Check out this website - www.telebid.com
This is a premium money raking machine. It's an auction site where they charge you for every bid; they sell a plasma tv starting at £0, bidding is totally live (ajax), every bid costs £0.50 ($1) and adds £0.07 to the price and 15 seconds to the time remaining - you get a situation where a PSP has 10 seconds left and it is only on for £5. Every time it drops to 1 second someone else bids, time goes back upto 15 seconds. Some lucky person ends up getting a PSP for £25 or however much, but 25/0.07 = 357 bids at £0.50 each = so telebid.com have sold a £99 PSP for £178.
Watch it it's insane. They must be making hundreds of pounds a minute. They're also being really clever about it and selling "free bids" and selling pure cash.
Wish I'd thought of that!

not sure if there is any appeal or luck buddy... all the loop on their script looks for is someone who is on the phone and then uses another script to push their "bidbutler" higher... nice way of making big $ but not so good on customer service... all the loosers try again, bid more and higher and still do not win... then just go back to ebay and buy it!
