getting charged for a snipe when already won auction

Guest

I was wondering why I was 'charged' for 2 different snipes, when my snipe bids were not the winning bids on 2 auctions? In each case, due to the recent problems with ebay sending false confirmations about auctions ending early when they haven't, I have placed bids on items I really wanted. My proxy bids were enough to win without the use of my backup snipes. Yet in both cases I was charged for the snipe when my proxy bid won the auction.

I didn't think the snipe counted if I was already the high bidder on ebay. Was I wrong??
