Heh, that kart toy is cute. THe same item is now being fought over, though the price is around the same level as it started from.
There was an auction for the Tiny Bee controllers earlier on this week, I don't know if you mean that, but I considered bidding on it before thinkling, "Do I really need to spend £100+ on a pair of toy guns?"
I know, it's a rare item, might b worth a lot in the future etc. but I've got a lot of other necessary things to buy at the mo.
Oh, and didn't you sell Skies of Arcadia to me a while back? Back for more torturous random battles, eh? :)

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ViewItem&item=3081462919
And I ordered FFX-2 Tiny Bee guns earlier in the week...

I just spent over £200 on a digi camcorder. Didn't know it would end up so high to be honest, but still cheaper than the rest out there at the mo.

Alternatively, and much healthier, try my far simpler method.
1) Find a free bid sniper program/site
2) Search for your item and add it to your watched items list on My eBay
3) the day before the item ends decide what you want to pay
4) use the bid sniper program/website to set the item up
5) that is all - no late night, not constant checking the item or frantic refreshing, just the knowledge your bid will be placed within seconds of the end leaving most people no chance to bid back if you got the winning bid.
