Some old dried up bitch in the midwest who sells her crap on ebay.
Did you buy anything from that ebay whore?

A game played by some EBayers, in which you pump the bid of a normally-priced item to ludicrous prices (often in the hundreds of thousands) while trying to avoid being the one that ends up with the final bid, and thus having to pay the over-inflated price.
Hmm, there's no bids on that item! Why don't we have a game of EBay Roulette?

The horrible feeling you get in the pit of your stomach after you've paid for an item you won on eBay that still hasn't arrived more than three weeks later.
That fricken kumquat peeler I bought on eBay hasn't come in the mail yet and it's been nearly a month! I've got a major case of the Ebay jeebies.

Annoying no-lifes who monitor eBay auctions all day before placing a bid at the very last second to prevent anyone else from getting the item, causing frustration and despair to failed bidders.
"YES, 5 seconds to go and that laptop is mine! All for ยฃ50!"
"What the shit? Bitch! Some bastard eBay sniper sniped me at the last second!"

If a person has ebay-fu, they have mastered the art of ebay, able to get whatever they want, by bidsniping auctions or finding the stupidestly low prices for stuff
John's level of ebay-fu is fucking scary. He got a ยฃ200 TV for a fiver
A person missing a few braincells who bids on an item before the last few minutes. Great for the seller not so great for the buyers including the EW themselves
"Hey Jeff you get that signed Star Wars trainset you were after in the end?"
"No the Ebay Wankers strikes back."

Somebody who won the eBay auction that was "yours" because they practice superior bidding strategies.
When done properly, eBay sniping avoids bidding wars, shill bidding, and losing.
To be a successful eBay sniper, enter the very maximum you are willing to pay when the auction has less than 10 seconds to go. Then imagine the faces on those lowballers you just beat.
Sarah: Wow Mike, how do you manage to get so many great deals on eBay?
Mike: I'm an eBay sniper!
