Am I behind the times here?

Does everyone one on Ebay use snipe programs now? I've noticed a trend on popular items that I always get sniped by a buck at the last second. It couldn't be more obvious. I guess I'll have to cheat too.
BTW, I hope the person who sniped my bindings tonight breaks both their fucking knees with them. I know that's a mean and immature thing to say. Oh well. Burn, fucker, burn!!

Sniping is the only way..

Please elaborate on how using a snipe program is cheating or in some way unfair.

If you were willing to pay more than the guy who won, then you would have won. But apparently he was willing to pay more. So he won.

I know. But I'm mad and bitter right now and the real cause of this (my fault) has nothing to do with the outcome!!! So enough of you! Pipe down.

What do people use for sniping? Fuck, I forgot about it for 10 minutes and BAM! Right on the last second. Help me here.

heh, fair enough.

I use phantombidder, which is a flat $0.60 fee for each auction you win with it. I've got no complaints with it. There are other snipers that charge a comission instead of a flat fee if you prefer that.

If you're already sniping manually, then it's probably worth 60 cents to not click refresh for 30 minutes straight

OK, I just read that site. That looks good, thanks.
Damn, I feel dirty but damnit I'm a winner!!!!(well, maybe)

I was watching those bindings tonight too. They started at $5.00 yesterday and just kept getting bid up from there. They were minty too, oh well.

I was gonna snipe them with Auction Sniper. You get a couple free snipes when you sign up too. I can send you an invite if you'd like.
