currently its 255. tomorrow it will end.
it will just place my 375 at 5 second from end?
I was under the impression it placed the next highest bid 5 second from the
end at this point 260. if some else placed the same bid it would give the benefit to
the max on file. Person #1 could have 300 max person two could have 350
I set for 375
can I reset my max to 275 now
You WANT to have your max be the only bid that you place. Whenever there is more than one bidder in an auction, the winning bid will generally be in the amount of the second bid plus one increment. (There are a few unusual exceptions, but that is basically the rule.) Thus, in your example, you would win for $355, which would be the second highest bid of $350 + $5 increment. If you set your bid for $275, you would be out of luck, but if you leave it at $375, you will win. You will not pay your entire max, only the amount that you need to win. That is a function of eBay's proxy bidding system, and has nothing to do with Auction Sniper. If you bid $1000, you would still win for $355 if the second highest bid was $350.
