That is correct - BE is not designed to protect against other snipers, only to protect your original snipe amount by bidding more in the event that your max bid was not enough to get you in the winning position.

We have talked about a service that would detect if you are sniped or outbid by proxy. Not sure about it at this point. Thoughts? Sounds like this is the kind of service you expected from BE and might prefer.

Thanks!

You are right, that sounds more like how I thought it would work. In essence, if you are not winning at the end of the auction (whatever your "trigger" time is) the increment would go into effect.

It sounds like maybe you are better off upping the original bid and not messing with BE.
