Hey guys, very interesting post. I just wanted to say that I'm a sniper and 99% of all my eBay wins have been due to sniping the old fashion way. I have to be at home and in front of the computer. I win some, I lose some. I get the peace of mind that I still put in my max bid and that when I snipe, there really is no time for anyone to bid me up if I'm the max bid. Sniping is part of the game, you must adjust yours accordingly. Just my two pennies. Good luck on your eBaying guys.
