What eBay sniper service do you use? I did a quick google search, and there are so many. Since they ask for eBay login info, I want to make sure I sign up with one that is reputable!

Luxe Diva · Jul 5th, 2009, 02:44 PM

I use Auction Sniper and it's great, very reputable. When you sign up, your first 3 snipes are free and you earn free snipes by referring others (once they sign up).

Item Amount and Fees are as follows:

Auction won that ended at $25.00 USD or less is $0.25 USD

Auction won that ended between $25.01 and $995.00 USD is 1% of the final price

Auction won that ended at $995.01 or more is $9.95 USD

Leeleerae · Jul 5th, 2009, 03:15 PM

Wow, that is not bad!
If you PM me your info, I can say you referred me.

If you do a thread search there are a ton of helpful threads on auction snipers and recommendations.

People Who Bid 5 Seconds Before The Auction Is Over!!!!!

I using biddingscheduler.com which is free and have not had a problem.

Auction Sniper is good, I use Just Snipe though when I really need to snipe something...which isn't often anymore.

SusanMargaret · Jul 5th, 2009, 05:39 PM

I also use www.biddingscheduler. com and appreciate the fact that it is totally free! I've used it for some time and never had any problems. It is great to be able to schedule a last minute bid several days before the auction ends and forget about it!

gloss_gal · Jul 5th, 2009, 05:45 PM

Can't you set eBay to outbid all other bids?

mirdc · Jul 5th, 2009, 06:20 PM

I use auctionstealer.com - 3 free per week, after that you have to pay for them

hotshot · Jul 5th, 2009, 06:39 PM

I have used auctionsniper in the past.. very reputable and it worked!!

How safe is that they will not scam you? At first thought, sniping service is a good idea for me since I lived in the opposite side of the world. Its either I've missed an auction or stay late. I lived in NZ. If I lost in the auction, my DH will always say " there's a lot of fish in the ocean". But I'm so frustrated and feel what a waste of time if you lose in an auction!!! I hate the days you feel so miserable and so depressed. I guess using a sniping services is good and bad. GOOD- you have a better chance of winning. BAD- you will miss the adrenalin and the excitement!!!

Lvbabydoll · Jul 5th, 2009, 07:57 PM

^I just keep an eye on my ebay account frequently when I do use the sniper...I've used a sniper for a few years and have never had a problem.

bunnymasseuse · Jul 7th, 2009, 03:16 PM

Keep in mind, you can't use a security fob like PP's paypal ID RSA key with any sniping as it would require you to enter your 6 digit # in in addition to your reg. password.

What is this service... I buy and sell on ebay and if this is something I could use I will give you the reference too.

frenchtoast · Jul 8th, 2009, 03:14 PM

I use auction sentury. You can go and have a 10 day trial or buy it for a year for $12.95- or buy a 2 or 3 year.

lovely64 · Jul 9th, 2009, 05:04 AM

I also use auctionsniper, and I have done so since 2003 (I think), never had a problem with it either......I almost always snipe the items I want, and I usually end up getting them too.
