Ebay sniping
 

Right. I know many of you will condone this sort of tactic, but I also bet some of you have used it. ;)

Does anyone have any experience they care to share. Use U2U if you prefer. My reason for asking is that I want to biy something from the US but don't fancy getting up at 4 in the morning, so simply looking for a tool that can do the bidding on my behalf. And yes I know I could put in a maximum bid in several hours before, but last time I got sniped by $0.50! Not doing that again!

Do you have a file sharing program?

If so just put ebay snipe in the search and you will get the tool you need.

I snipe all the time, learned it in Vietnam while poping off them damn VC on the wire. :lol::lol:

It's on it's way to you.!!;)

Just like Dom, auctionsniper's my weapon of choice for this.

Don't need to worry about having my PC online, the link being up etc, etc ,etc.

First bid in of that value wins.

Th chances of them being exactly the same time are miniscule.

Leave your PC on overnight and use Auction Sentry...

I use esnipe and have been very happy with the results. Stops me from going over the top and it's a doddle to use.

Cheers for all the replies. Now, presumably, you need to provide any of these snipers with your Ebay credentials. Any need to worry?

sorry to sound daft but how is this software different to just putting in the max price you would pay on ebay?

doesnt ebay bid for you up to your max bid? if you get outbid does it matter if its by 50p or £5000?
