Auction Snipe Knowledge Base

Do you think eBay should ban auction sniping? I'm so tired of it. I'll be bidding on an item and three seconds before it ends, I'm out bid by some jerk who hasn't been bidding previously and waited to snipe it. The items I sell end up going for a lower price because everyone waits until the last minute to snipe it. As a buyer and seller I'm sick of it. What are your opinions on auction sniping?

Auction Sniping? Okay, on ebay when you have a sniper program set up, say i have it set for 5 seconds...does the sniper program know they have a maximum bid? Is 5 seconds ( for the snipe set up ) too short a time for it to consecutively bid it for me until i have outbid them. thanks alot well iguess what i mean is, because they have a max bid and the program doesnt know what it is, that means it will have to auto-bid for me until it overrides theirs, i dont know how fast these programs are...but would 5 seconds be enough time?

Why do people "snipe" on Ebay? Why don't they just figure out the max they're willing to pay, bid that, and be done with it. Do they not understand that Ebay's proxy bidding is designed so they don't HAVE to nervously watch the auction? getting the lowest price possible doesn't explain it. If I want the lowest price possible, and I can decide what the highest price I'm willing to pay is, I can bid that price and either I won't win or I'll get it for what turned out to be the lowest price possible.

Where is a good place to buy vintage cameras, other than ebay? So I have just gotten fed up with ebay snipers outbidding me at the last second. I refuse to use the sniping program because it is unfair. I love old cameras and love collecting them, not so much for the dollar value but because I enjoy looking at them and using them. I live on an island where there really aren't any antique stores or thrift stores. I often browse Shopgoodwill.com and Keh.com. Where else online can I find a place that sells or auctions vintage cameras?
Did eBay Auctions used to AutoExtend? I was having a conversation today about sniping on eBay and I mentioned that back in the early days of eBay if someone placed a bid in the last few minutes of the auction, eBay would add three minutes to the auction so the other bidders had time to react. My friend said that I was nuts and that eBay auctions have always ended at exactly their ending time. I would have sworn I was right...Am I nuts?
Looking for an ignition 3.0 dance pad in calgary? Hi I've been looking for an ignition 3.0 dance pad for a really long time now. I've checked EB games and they never have it in stock. I don't want to order the mat from the official Redoctane website because it would cost my 130$. Because its 79.99, plus around 50% shipping. So, I was wondering if anybody can tell me if theres any place in calgary that sells ignition 3.0's, or if anybody is willing to sell me one at a reasonable price. I've also checked Ebay, and theres never a Buy It Now that ships to canada. And, I can't really auction "snipe". Well, thanks. Anything is much appreciated.

Ebay or Paypal problem? Im using a program to snipe auctions on ebay and I won a auction but then I noticed I did not win. I got an error message from my program called Bid-O-Matic that says: This seller has set buyer requirements for this item and only sells to buyers who meet those requirements. "You are unable to bid on or buy this item because: You either don't have a PayPal account or your PayPal account is not linked to your eBay account. We encourage you to register with PayPal - it is the fast, easy and safe way to pay. Register with PayPal | Already have a PayPal account?" However I do hav a paypal account and it is linked to my ebay account as far as I know. Im sure I am paypal confirmed.
Why do ebayers bid on items days before it ends? Ebay auctions are about bids but don't bidders have more of a chance to win if they wait till the end or maybe even sniping at the last second? Is there a strategy Im not seeing here with this method by letting their interest been known early on?
On ebay, why do people bid on auctions so early? Do they expect to win? For example, auctions that start at $0.01 or $0.99 can go up to over $50 because people bid too early and slowly drive up the price. Wouldn't it be smarter to wait until the end and snipe a good deal? If you're going to bid that high, why not go to the store and buy the thing? Seems kind of stupid to me.
How exactly does sniping on Ebay work? Say I decide to "snipe" something. I enter in my maximum bid and choose the 5 second cut off. Does that mean that my sniper software will automatically outbid the other person 5 seconds before the auction ends up to the amount of my maximum bid? Or will it automatically start bidding and then keep bidding (if I am out bid) until 5 seconds before the auction ends? Can someone explain exactly how this works? If an item I'm bidding on is currently 10 dollars but I put my bid in at 40 dollars, is the sniping software going to bid 40 dollars 10 seconds before the auction ends, or is it going to continue to bid UP TO 40 dollars before the auction ends?
Any E-Bayers out there?? Then tell me why??? Why do buyers bid so damn early and bring up the prices of the items?? Some even outbid themselves. Don't these people know to snipe and bid the last minute of the auction to keep the price down and to win....cheap???
Proxy/sniping on ebay? So i just put a bid on a halloween costume and someone put in SIX bids after me, their price rising incrementally by like 50 cents or something until they were 50 cents above me. first off, are they using the proxy feature that allows users to protect against sniping (assuming their highest amount is higher than the sniper)? also, i want to lure them into a false sense of security by not doing the proxy feature that raises the price incrementally above them. during the last few minutes of the auction, i want to use that proxy feature to beat them. does that make sense? will it work? okay here, let me explain this again, during the last few minutes, i want to put in that proxy thing and start raising the price by like 50 cents above them. starting that bidding war later would mean i might get the item at a cheaper price ,right? and i would still win because of the proxy feature automatically bidding higher than them each time right?
Do you use Ebay any more? Business Week has an article about ebay. It says the company is going to have to change to fixed price sellers People are annoyed with sniping and it says this causes inefficiency in the auction market. I used ebay twice and was annoyed both times with the process. Do you still use ebay and will you continue?
Can somone sue me over a not paid item on ebay? I recently bid on an auction, and wanted to try out an ebay sniping program called JBidwatcher. I entered how much I wanted to bid, and selected the right auction, and then in the last 10 seconds it bid for me, and I won the item. Unfortunately, the program bid way more than I had entered! I explained to the seller that the software had glitched or something, and he threatened to sue me! I realize it is an inconvenience, but there is an option to offer the item to the second highest bidder for their maximum bid. I don't know why he isn't willing to do this. Would he have a chance in court over an issue like this?
Ebay???!!! *Ebay Users only***? I have bidded on the same game 2 or 3 times to ensure I get it because I've been caught out by snipers before and now the auction only has an hour to go and no one has bidded on any of them now I'm genna have about 3 copies. Anyway should I wait for the ones I've bidded and risk them being sniped or should I wait until the near end and see If I'm outbid then try anouther auction or try to forget about it and risk all of the games. Thanks ~LickingRabbit

NASCAR FANS, I NEED YOUR HELP! Can you tell me if this car is worth the buy it now price? Serious answers only! I am thinking about buyuing this Dale Earnhardt Jr car for my husband. He is a huge fan and I do not think he owns this one. According to the listing this is 1 0f 600 and the BUY IT NOW price is $49.99 with an insured Shipping charge of $11.00. I could wait until the auction starts and maybe get it for less, but it might be sniped before I can place my final bid. IS it worth the buy it now price or should I chance it? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=110267848376&ssPageName=STRK:MESE:IT&ih=001
What is sniping? Should I use it? I've read that with this system that you can download on your computer, you are more likely to win auctions on-line (ebay) and it's useful for when you are not able to be present at the end of auctions. My question is, is it legal to use it? Is it safe to download it? Can you advise a reliable source? many thanks to all
