I've just started trying to use myibay web interface and everything is going fine, but I don't understand what the "Stage" and "Payment" dropdowns are there for. Please inform. Thanks

These are for your records only.
This way you know if you paid for this particular item or not yet.
If you paid, then what kind of payment you used.

I personally have several dozens of items in my list and it's hard to remember everything.

Once again, thanks for the info. I'm really looking forward to seeing how all this works for me. I've never actually won an Ebay action before. Of course this could be because I hate parting with a penny more than I have to.

That's what snipers for.
You either win it or someone else is paying too much
