eBay sniper wanted for Thursday morning

**Superstar Punani** · 12-08-2004, 12:53 PM

Something I desperately need is ending tomorrow morning, right about the time I'm choking on face shots.

So I need someone I know and trust, who won't bag this item for themselves, to snipe it for me with 5 seconds left to go before auction close. Someone who has access to a computer at home/work....maybe this someone won't be skiing tomorrow due to work commitments, or, say, recovering from a recent knee surgery. Someone who I can say "I know where you live, foo" in case they do decide to bag this ski-related item for themselves

Thank you in advance,

Punani

We could probably do it on my phone Punani, from the lift

...via Mmode.

I have to work tomorrow and have no $$$ to steal it from you, I don't think you know where I live, but I am a lawyer, so you know I wouldn't screw you.

no $$$ != I am a lawyer

I can only win/bid from my phone...not full internet capabilities.

...only seems to work with US auctions as well. I've tried bidding in Euros and Pounds with no avail.

I work for the city and I have a family. Those two things work against large earning capacity. I could live w/out the city job but living w/out the family would suck hard core.

**Red Baron** · 12-08-2004, 02:59 PM

I'm good on snipes, Mr Cornhole can have em'....

Have you ever lost using this method?

Yes. It's not perfect due to delays and other snipers, etc. Of course, you could still just be outbid, too.

My favorite feature is the "bidgroups" which allow you to bid on a bunch of the same thing until you win one. So, say you want a new Ironman watch, of which there are probably 1000 on ebay, you could import 15 or so and lowball all of them. If you happen to win one, it stops sniping on the rest. Perty cool.

I just won some new skis for $130 using www.auctionsniper.com. You get 5 free snipes when you sign up.

Important to remember: if you're bidding early evening (6-10pm) make your lead time a little longer like 5-7 seconds.

Also do your research so your bid is not too low.

Worked for me, and I'm a very happy camper!

"Power Setting goes up to '12'"

Power Setting? I would have expected you to buy bindings with a Power Setting of 20. Now if he means DIN 12, well then I understand.
