I thought all snipes were 25 cents after you used your free ones. Is that not the case? I was charged 29 cents for one which seems like an odd number to me. Just curious.
"New users are not charged for the first three auctions they win using Auction Sniper. Thereafter, we charge only 1% of the final auction price with a minimum fee of $0.25 and a maximum fee of $5.00 for only the auctions that you win. Dutch auctions are charged $1.00 regardless of the quantity or cost of the items won."
The amount of the fee is determined by the final winning bid price, but under no circumstances will a sniper be charged more than $5.00 (or $1.00 in Dutch auctions). Your winning bid was a tad more than the upper limit for the minimum fee of two bits, which is why the charge was $.29.
