LOL! As long as the problem isn't shill bidding
an the like I couldn't
agree more. Sniping is basically built into the system. If I can't be
online when it ends to snipe an auction I typically won't bid. Right now I
have a real problem, an auction with a part I need badly ends at 6:15am on
Saturday. There is no way I'm getting up that early, do I bid, or wait for
I don;t get this. Why don't you simple do what E-bay origianlly intended
you to do. Decide what that part is worth to you and bid that ammount. If
you win it, you've got it for a price less than you think it's worth (so
you've 'won'), if somevody outbids you (whether a 'snipe' or not),
well,
they were prepared to pay moe for it than you were. It happens.
OK, I don;t use E-bay as much as most people here, I guess, but so far
I've done the above. NEver sniped. Of course I am sometimes outbid. I
would expect to me. But I do win things. Probably more than I am outbid
on, acutally.
