| electricsheep,
If you put your max bid into ebay it will instantly increment the auction if someone else bids - and you stay on top as long as it is within you max bid. With snipe software it leaves the bidding until the last few seconds so doesn't push the auction price up until then - if people are bidding manually then you have a higher chance of winning the auction at a lower price.
I'm not sure how it would work with your max bid being in ebay and being the same as the one in your snipe software (assuming this is what you meant?) - I haven't seen this and I'm not sure what would happen. |
