Hi
I am a new member, haven't done my first snipe yet. Referred by a friend who swears by it.
My question is about how it works when the current high bidder has put in a higher maximum proxy bid than what the current price is. If there is only 8 seconds lead time, is this enough to have ASniper make successive bids and re-bids to get to above their maximum?
Let me give an example: the item I want is currently priced at $100. There have been 9 bids, which were all done quick, so someone bid up, and current bidder's proxy bid seems to have lifted them above successively by $1 each time. So I'm pretty sure they have not yet reached their maximum proxy bid.
I have set ASniper to a max bid of $200. But if it submits a bid with 7 seconds left at $101, the current bidder's proxy will then go to $102.
Does ASniper take this into account, e.g., with quick bids back and forth, and you winning as long as your max ASniper bid is above their Ebay proxy maximum?
Or in this case is there some other better way to proceed?
Thanks in advance for any advice.
John
