Reply to "What would happen if I manually bid before my snipe?"

Okay I've been practicing. For the past 10 minutes or so I've been following the countdown timer on AS for the item. There's still two days to go but I'm following the 60 second count downs. My lead is set to 7. So when the timer reaches below 10 I refresh the page as quickly as I can and I glance at the status. If at 6 seconds the status is still "waiting" then I will manually bid on the item myself in the tab next to my AS tab. I've timed it and it takes me about 2 seconds to confirm my bid. I believe this is what I'll do and I don't think I can really "bid" myself anyway, in case I overlap my own bidding.
