I really want to win this item!!!

Welcome to our forum! Most important is to remember it is the largest amount bid that usually wins so place your snipe at the max you want to pay. As for the timing,I usually use 8 seconds and have never lost a bid because of this. I know some use 5 seconds so that might work also! Good luck and remember, there are always more of the same coming up on Ebay eventually!

5 seconds should work fine. AS may adjust your lead time if they think there is a chance your bid won't make it in time.

To many worry to much about when their bid is placed. Most bids placed very late in the auction were planed and will be entered no matter when (or even if) your bid is placed.

Their time would be better spent determining what max they are willing to pay.

Oh, and remember you can't edit a snipe in the last 2-3 minutes of the auction.

Good Luck !!

I am so excited! I just won the item! I used a 5 second lead time. I am glad I did! There had not been a bid on the item in 2 days, but with 7 seconds left, someone else bid, and then I outbid them 2 seconds later with my AS! I love AS!

Congrats... Hope to see you post again!

Now they are thinking they would have won if only their bid had been placed 3 seconds later than it was...

Truth is, you would have won either way!!
