I have nothing against sniping. But if you're going to snipe, you have 
to do it correctly. You need to bid at LEAST 50% more than the current 
price, not 10% as was done here.  And for the high bidder to defend 
himself against sniping, he needs to bid at least 100% more than the 
current bid.  I realize that's a little difficult in this price range.
