Bid on an item I really wanted today. Remembered that I saw AuctionSniper last night and decided to join. No one else bid on the item, so I won it with my original bid. When I logged on to AuctionSniper, I was congratulated on my snipe win. Actually, this was not a snipe win.
Should I, in the future, come directly to AuctionSnipe when wanting to bid on an item?

Also, I lost an item to someone who bid before me, but whose name was only shown on the list of bidders as the winner. Could that have been a snipe?

Actually, I spoke (wrote) too soon. After reading other messages, I got the answers to my questions.
