An irrational affinity for shiny objects. When a highly shiny object is seen by the sufferer it often may induce a compulsive need to claim it and several minutes of staring at said object in the sun. This will later end in the sufferer pocketing the object to add to his/her collection by a sunny windowsill at home. If a shiny object is ouside of a sufferer's grasp it will usually result in an strong, though usually short-lived obsession over it.
Me: Master Chief's armor wasn't nearly as shiny as you said in the Halo 3 trailer.
Ray: yea it is it is sooooooooooooooooo shiny
Me: Magpie syndrome

Like a magpie is attracted to shiny objects, the cock magpie is a girl (or guy) who just loves the cock. The cock magpie is commonly found surrounded by disproportionate amounts of male genitalia.
Aaron: "I can't believe Mark got out with that girl last night"
Tom: "Yeah i know, she's such a slag. It'd be like throwing a hotdog down a corridor...."
Matty: "She's always like that, she's a real cock magpie. She just loves the cock"

A method by which some users choose their path through websites, i.e., by clicking on the "shiny" buttons and links, with little regard for the information architecture or existing navigation hierarchy.
We made the happy path buttons larger and bright blue to facilitate magpie navigation.
An overwhelming urge to purchase an item of no practical value and/or out of once price range purely based on its appearance.
Usually the item in question is either glittery or catching the light causing the victim to become entranced by said item.
At the risk of sounding sexist it primarily affects women where shoes are concerned and men in car show rooms.
βI know I canβt walk in heals, let alone 6 inch ones but they looked so pretty glistening away in the shop window, I succumbed to the magpie effect instantaneously.β

It is the type of bidding, usually for a house, where the first impressions are very good but it's not what you actually want or need. You then knee jerk bid on it before thinking it through. Magpie bidders usually go away and withdraw their bid rapidly after thinking about it in more detail.
"It 'twinkles' I want it, let's bid now!"
Then sometime in the future:
"Don't like it"
It's ok love, don't cry there will be other bidders. They were clearly just Magpie bidding, can't believe they would mess with people's lives like that.
