Hi Marcus,
Nothing sneaky about a snipe. Occasionally I set mine as soon as
the item is put up for auction to place my bid a few seconds before
the auction closes. I only want to place one bid. Keeps me out of
bidding wars too. If i'm high bidder, fine. If i get outbid, that's fine
too. The stuff ain't as rare as we would be lead to believe.
