Yes. One last thing: In fact I noticed that on a few occasions when I've sniped, people I beat seem to take active revenge (either that or I am getting paranoid). For example, I happened to outbid, with a snipe, an early bidder from whom I'd bought an item (he also sells) around the same time--he never left feedback for me even after I left the positive FB for him and also did him a favor on the postage charge. (Suspicious, I checked and yes he did leave FB for all his other buyers that month.) Ah... maybe it is just paranoia....
