Just what I do all of the time--other than for a "buy it now" deal. I
put what I'm willing to pay into eSnipe and fuggedaboudit. If I win,
fine, otherwise, I don't get caught up in the frenzy.
I have lost an auction or two to eSnipe failures, but that was in
their very early days. On the flip side of being an early "guinea
pig", I don't pay anything for auctions won under $25 and a flat 1%
of anything over $25 up to a max of $10.
I've used sniping software, but find it to be not as reliable as
eSnipe.
I offer this only in the interest that others may benefit by it in
their collecting efforts.
