My Wins is currently a feature I would not be willing to pay for; however I thought of one that would be worth it to me (and others). As a seller (and to a lesser extent, as a buyer), my feedback is important to me. Right now, I periodically scan all my wins and items I have sold, and anyone who hasn't left feedback after a week or so gets an email asking them to do so.
An automated, configurable script to do that would be a very nice addition to the site, and worth paying (but not a lot) for. Let it use templates, so it could be configured, and have the option to turn the auctionsniper plugs off

Dear [name]:
Feedback is an integral and fundamental part of the eBay experience. It helps keep buyers and sellers informed, provides incentive for buyers and sellers alike to keep the process running smoothly, and helps screen out potential fraudulant activities.
It has been a week since [you won my / I won your] auction, and you have not left feedback. I try to leave prompt, accurate, and concise feedback in all my transactions, and ask that you do likewise. If you have had any problems with the transaction, please contact me immeadatly at [email address]. Otherwise, I respectfully ask that you leave feedback for me with regards to this transaction at

Thank you,
