Automatic Bidding | Auction Sniper

rancidMember

I am looking an an auction with one bidder which ends in five hours, with a current bid of $2.00. If I enter a snipe with a maximum of $60, and the current high bidder has automatic bidding up to $50 (say) will there be a biding war with lots of bids at the end of the auction with minimum increments until I (hopefully) win, or will it just be the one bid from auction sniper above the $50 automatic bidding maximum the high bidder has? Thanks

AS will place one bid (snipe) of $60.

AS bids once at your max in the last few seconds - read up on Proxy Bidding on ebay to see how this works. Also, bid a few extra cents (eg. $60.03) to facilitate a win against a proxy bid of $60...
