[rollei_list] Re: Sniping on ebay

The thing about sniping programs is, one can enter the MAXIMUM one  
would ever consider paying for the widget, and then forget about it.  
If you win, you win. If you lose, you are not tempted to bid above  
your preset limit, you simply lose. The winner obviously wanted it  
more than you did.

I used to waste a lot of time having two screens open, waiting until  
15 seconds before the end, then entering my bid. So now I do the same  
thing only use a program to do it for me so I can actually do my work.  
I'm in the same time zone as eBay (they are literally just a few  
blocks from me) so an awful lot of the end times are during the middle  
of my work day. Sniping software solves that problem.

I buy a lot of stuff from foreign countries, on their eBay (where I  
got my SL66 cameras and a lot of Hasselblad stuff) so sniping programs  
are a savior there too.
