2 (or more) Snipers - 1 Auction?!?

Guest

What happens when 2 (or more) AuctionSniper users Snipe the same auction?

I assume the system allows the bid for the user with the shorter lead time (unless one has a higher bid), and doesn't even bother to place the lower or longer lead bid.

It then becomes a "secret" auction, correct? Only when the auction is over will you learn who the highest bidder was.

What I wanna know is what has precedence, the bid amount, or the lead time?

In other words, if there are 2 snipers, A and B, and A sets up a 5 second lead time snipe for $10 and B sets up a 4 second lead time for $5, assuming no other bids, what will the result be?!?

AuctionSniper is great until the word gets out and everyone starts using it! Think of what ebay would be like if EVERYONE sniped!

(I seriously doubt Ebay would let that scenario continue.)
