Read the FAQ, yet i still have a question | Auction Sniper

Ok, so im getting ready to snipe an auction that is a reserve auction.
When auction sniper places a snipe, will it place my MAX amount im willing to pay, or will it snipe the amount of money that it takes to meet the MINIMUM reserve?
Or will it keep bidding for me until it meets the reserve?

See this is all too confusing for me..

AS will place the amount you give it. It will only place one snipe/bid then ebay's bidding system determines the winner.

So when it snipes it will place my Max bid correct? And then ebay will determine if it meets the reserve?

Correct. So bid the maximum amount you're willing to pay for the item. You won't have time to rebid if your snipe doesn't meet the reserve.
