  Re: Ebay sniper? you make the call
 
(...) Well, yes, it is like the game of 'chicken'. It can be spectacular. Recently the other sniper was only going $5 over the minimum bid (which I was doubling)... suffice it to say there was a lot more than $20 at stake. (22 years ago, 20-Nov-02, to lugnet.market.auction)
 
  Re: Ebay sniper? you make the call
 
(...) Yes, there is an auto-sniper program. A bidder used it in one of my auctions recently. Then the auto-bidder program had the audacity to *spam* me with a brag that it just won the auction for it's bidder and boy wouldn't I like to use it. I'll (...)

  Re: Ebay sniper? you make the call
 
(...) I've done it. Nothing to hide. It's just part of the ugliness that can be eBay. I bid over my dial-up home connection. So my response time isn't always guaranteed. I will sometimes snipe with 30, 20, or even 10 seconds to go. With the lag (...) (22 years ago, 19-Nov-02, to lugnet.market.auction, lugnet.market.theory)

(...) Oh, duh! I forgot about that--I've been off of ebay for a while... Dave! (22 years ago, 19-Nov-02, to lugnet.market.auction)
 
  Re: Ebay sniper? you make the call
 
I've been sniped by the same guy multiple times, each time with about 5 seconds to go. I think they are using software which bids for them. The purpose of sniping is to conceal even your fair estimate in hopes nobody else will seriously value it (...) (22 years ago, 19-Nov-02, to lugnet.market.auction)
 
  Re: Ebay sniper? you make the call
 
(...) All you can determine is that the sniper's bid is $1 higher than your current max bid. Personally, I just bid what I want to bid for the item. I may re-evaluate later, but most times I bid up front. Of course this does give the sniper the (...) (22 years ago, 19-Nov-02, to lugnet.market.auction)
 
  Re: Ebay sniper? you make the call
 
(...) I concur--the fact that "sniping" can work at all suggests that the "sniped" bidder was withholding a higher bid in hope of scoring a deal; after all, one's bid is nominally the amount that one is willing to pay for the item, and if one it (...)

  Re: Ebay sniper? you make the call
 
(...) Sure, it can happen. Waiting until three seconds are left is courting disaster what with the net lag demons, but that may be why it happened at 3 rather than 23 seconds. Heck, if I know I'm going to be around for an auction end, I'll put a bid (...) (22 years ago, 19-Nov-02, to lugnet.market.auction)
 
  Re: Ebay sniper? you make the call
 
(...) Scott, this happens far more often than you'd think. I was teaching a new computer user haw to use ebay yesterday and this exact situation happened. She was shocked that an item could be sniped with only a second remaining in the auction. I (...) (22 years ago, 19-Nov-02, to lugnet.market.auction)
 
  Re: Ebay sniper? you make the call
 
(...) I've had it happen to me and I've done it before also. Once with just 1 second left. Now, no flames, I'm just playing the E-Bay game like a lot of others. I may not like it, but to win, sometimes you have to play just as dirty as others. (...) (22 years ago, 19-Nov-02, to lugnet.market.auction)
 
  Ebay sniper? you make the call
 
It’s really not a big deal, but I was bidding on an item on Ebay and I was out bid, literally 3 seconds before the item closed. Is that even possible? Was it just extraordinary luck that the winning bidder clicked submit just under the wire or was (...) (22 years ago, 19-Nov-02, to lugnet.market.auction)
