But we have opted to go with more transparency.

Sniping is also about savingour customers time. Not everyone has the time (or
desire) to sit in frontof a computer all night and fight back and forth in $2

Sniping allows you to set a bid and have it executed at the end of the
auctionwithout

Bid enough you still win the item.
If the snipe isn't high enough there's no time for sniper to react and bid
again.
If you resent not having time to respond to a snipe bid, and want to bid more
really you should have bid that amount in the first place.
Other than convenience, like being able

I'm not sure I follow.If you bid the maximum amount you are willing to pay for
an item, you will either lose that item to someone who is willing to pay more
If Rich is wanting a much-sought-after Chandler item, there is no
rule saying he has to sit by his computer all night watching it. He
can enter his bid for it anytime he wants, either manually or by snipe.
The only thing that matters is how much he is willing to pay for the item.

It seems like you could add that feature to your web site and not have to pay
them every month.However, it seems like a bit of a conflict of interest.
Basically, the argument for sniping is that the buyer will get a better price
on the item
Use BidTamer, have paid but at the moment using the free version.
By paying fee snipe buffer can be reduced to 3 seconds, free version is minimum
of 10 seconds.
Also, with free version there's a limited number of snipes, think it's 3 a week.

Just use www.Gavelsnipe.com (it also works for www.MovieposterExchange.com).
Totally free to use and works great.
No limits to teh number of snipe you can place and it has a toolbar feature
that makes sniping incredibly easy.

Your right. Look at the bids on this 2001: a space odyssey postcard. If martinjurb had sniped, stranamore1964 would of put in a bid of 46.99 at 8:25:06 and would be the high bidder until martinjurb sniped and won for 47.99 instead of paying 97.99.
and win by a smidgen more... or simply make you pay more than you would have otherwise.

Kirby, I believe you can actually bid against yourself. I may be a bit foggy on this, but I once attempted to place both an Ebay bid and a snipe bid, and either esnipe or Ebay thought it was two different bidders, and as I recollect, I trumped myself.
