after perusing the fora here for good lead time managed to change my lead time to 8 secs as suggested - however i AM in the UK and this might lead us to having a shorter lead time - i was sniped by someone else who set theirs to 5 secs by the look of it
just out of interest - even if my snipe was placed 3 seconds before the end, if someone has autobid for a higher amount then will that still beat mine (eg as autobid/proxy bid) as soon as ebay recognises my bid?
