I talked to the programmer and you should be able to do snipes for bidgroups at: lead time + 1 second. So with only 3 seconds between snipes you can do a 2 or 1 second lead time on the second auction to end.

So as long as you have a very short lead time on the auctions it will work. I guess in this case 1-2 seconds would work.

Really though there isn't a great solution for auctions ending this closely together. The best solution would be for any seller not to list their auctions so closely together. Most dont though.

If you want to try it and see what happens I'll give you a couple free snipes for reporting back with the results...
