I've been using eSnipe since it was a beta service. I totally agree,
it also keeps a vindictive buyer who you beat on another auction from
purposely running up the price in an auction to get you back for
beating his price on the previous purchase. Voice of experience.

I've mentioned before that I think that snipe bids
are the only fair bids.
They turn the open auction into a blind one and eliminate "auction fever".
Maybe not so good for the seller, particularly if he's looking to put in
"shill" bids, but great for the buyers and completely legit. If you don't
have sniping software, you can use one of several services.
