Yes, I always snipe (www.auctionstealer.co.uk).

Basically it turns eBay into a strange sort of sealed bid auction (strange 
because you don't necessarily pay your "maximum" price if you win the action, 
whereas you would in a true sealed bid system).

It stinks, but so does eBay generally, and it's as a direct result of eBay's 
systems that this habit of "sniping" has developed. I don't like doing it, but 
basically it's the only way.

Unfortunately, if you don't snipe you put yourself at a huge disadvantage.

Regards,

Simon
