Is it possible that AS would offer an option that if I am the winning bidder already, a snipe that is entered and has no effect on the winning bid price would not be charged as a successful snipe?
I often bid on an item, but put in a snipe as insurance if I really need to win. Then, a winning snipe doesn't actually raise the bid price because my bid was the only or last bid anyway.
Since I'm new to the discussion community, I won't be surprised to find this has already been raised, but maybe someone could refer me to that thread. Thanks.
Sadly, it would appear that AS is not a charity. I think it is only reasonable that they should get paid if they place the snipe on the winning bid - after all, you are using AS as a form of insurance and I can assure you that my car insurance isn't free if I don't crash...
