Damn, and this was looking soooo good.

Does AS disclose the lead time they give at various times?
[If I’m understanding the question] AS doesn’t have preset lead times. AS adjusts (pads) the seconds when it senses that more time is needed to get the snipe placed at the requested lead-time (kind of like leading the target). It does this based on the current traffic at ebay. Don’t know how they do this, and don’t know what they consider “current traffic” (30 seconds before auction end? 1 minute before auction end? 5 minutes before auction end?).

Not sure anyone but AS’s staff can answer this. If you don’t get any better input, and are still curious, you might try contacting AS: http://support.auctionsniper.com/
