AS enters bid at 11 secs when set to snipe @ 3 secs

kildesMember

How is it that when I set my snipe for 3 seconds, AS snipes it at 11 seconds? This allows my competitors to see my snipe far too early and then outbid me. I don't adjust my snipes at the last second. But my competitors do. They see my bid and then bid higher than they would have, because AS delivers my snipe far too early. I am glad to risk losing an occasional auction based on a late snipe. In my experience at a setting of 3 seconds, I miss 1 in 120 auctions. Snipes entered 11 seconds before auction closing are not snipes. They are just bids. And I don't need a sniping program for that. What is causing my bid time to be bumped earlier than my snipe setting? How can I stop this?
