I want to bid on an item which is currently at £150 if I put in say £525 will it automatically go straight up to £525 or will it go up only just enough to beat the next highest bidder.


Chris,,, It Could !!

If the item has a reserve on it, set at say £500, your bid at £525 would be placed and put the item on sale


Hello mate, thanks for that. I have just seen Steve is organising a trip on the plains on the 23rd, may see if I can get a ride around with someone Very Happy Havn't done any Landy stuff for a couple of years now Sad

There are a number of risks when using sniping software the main risks are not placing the bid in time and giving over your eBay username and password

Should the time not be synchronised between the software program or website server OR should there be a delay in logging into the eBay server your bid will not be placed in time for the end of the auction, as you try to place your bid as late as possible the risk increases.

Supplying your eBay username and password to a third party piece of software or website should give cause for caution. Once you have handed over your details the software package or website potentially has access to your whole eBay account. Based on this information it is very easy to find out your Paypal email address. Should you be like most people you possibly have one password that fits all, if this is the case the third party now has access to your email account and worst of all your Paypal account.

My advice is to use only trusted third party snipers, I have used both Auction Sniper and Goofbay (I use the latter more now as it is free) these are affiliated with eBay and have signed up to the eBay API program.
