I think some sellers are becoming wise to auction sniper (more)

bringthehogsMember

I am looking at sniping on a shirt, the same seller has 5 identical offerings in different auctions ending seconds apart.

As I see it, I will wait to see which shirt is going to have the lower bid price (not the one that is more than I will spend), and then snipe that particular shirt 4/5 minutes before auctions end. If there is another sniper wanting this product, they will probably snipe the same darn shirt. I am sure there will be one of these shirts within my planned budget. I cannot bid on 3 of these shirts, I could win all three and I only want 1.

Not a flaw in the sniper system, just what seems to be a clever seller.

Any tips? Auction ends this early evening (1/25/04)
