I snipped 301.90 on item 2178857080 and I lost to a bid of 297.00!"

Um, leafhead...did you stop to think that the bid increment for bids between $250.00 up to $499.99 is $5.00? Now, I wasn't a math major in college but $301.90 is only $0.89 higher than $301.01, and $301.90 is only $4.90 higher than $297.00. AS probably did submit your bids, but eBay rejected them as insufficient.

By the way, you have no way of knowing that the bids by the winners were their maximum bids. It's quite possible that in each instance a $5.00 increment might not have been enough to win. Sniping isn't much fun when your bid's not high enough, either.
