eBay promotes AuctionSniper!

cartmanMember

At this very moment, in another browser window I have an ebay search result page with an AuctionSniper banner ad. The ad says "Start winning more ebay auctions. Let AuctionSniper bid for you at the last second. It's easy and free to try. Tired of losing ebay auctions? Then click here!"

So I clicked. It goes to the "about me" page for id "auctionsniper-com" who is "not a registered user". Positive feedback is 100%. Last feedback dated April, 2003.

A f#$!-up by ebay, I presume. hee, hee ...

You should be able to re-create by searching for "snipe" in titles and descriptions. I did it just now: the large banner ad and first small add were for AuctionSniper, the second small ad was for EzSniper.
