I've got a snipe in on something that hasn't met reserve. If it doesn't, and my snipe goes in, I lose, yes?
How do I stop this from happening?

Hey Landyman,
If your snipe goes in and meets the reserve you will win (providing no other bidders out bid you).
How do you stop not meeting the reserve? You cant using Auction Sniper. If you want to find the reserve you need to either..
a) Proxy bid until it is reached
or
b) email the seller and ask them.
If you know how much you want to spend on that item it shouldnt be a problem though, just put your MAX bid in AS and let it do its thang.
If you win its because the reserve and any proxy bids were below your MAX. If you loose its because someone wanted to pay more OR the reserve was beyond the amount you are willing to pay.
Deciding what you are willing to part with for an item is the tuffest decision.
Good Luck and let us know what you decide
