Reply to "Closing snip"

rickMember

Bidding wars exaggerate the price of an item. We snipe to avoid bidding wars. Avoiding bidding wars lowers the ending price. We pay AS a fee to save money. Why do snipers make it sound like they are altruistic? Of course a sniper can increase the closing auction price. But if snipers placed a proxy bid, the auction would probably close at a higher price.

Anyone suggesting that we snipe because we want to spend more money? The reason we snipe is to SAVE money; ergo less $'s to seller. If you search prior posts you will see that most snipers admit that. Do you want some examples?

I SNIPE, AND I DO IT TO SAVE MONEY.
