The article "The Powerful eBay Bidding Strategy That Claims A 99% Success Rate" is about auctions, it was written by Ian Major.
Don't you just love it? You've found that special item on eBay that you've just got to have! No If's Ands or Buts, you've got to win that item.You've checked and double checked the "End Of Auction" time and date and you're at your computer, signed in and raring to go at least 30 minutes before the auction ends.You're fortunate to beat the latest bid and with nervous fingers you tap in the amount you're willing to pay.Then you read those dreaded words-!You Have Been Outbid! Now you remember, there are sneaky eBayers out there who use deviously cunning tricks, like placing high hidden bids and proxy bidding.You heard somewhere that you should wait untill the closing minute of the auction before placing your bid.Great, theres still 20 minutes to go, time to grab another cup of coffee.Back at your computer you count down the final minutes, how can 5 minutes seem to last so long?You constantly hit the refresh button so that you can check how long there's left to go.At last the final minute of the auction arrives.You tap in the next highest bid and hit "Place Bid". You're waiting for that page.
The one that says'! Congratulations! You Won The item! But your heart sinks when yet again you see those dreaded words-!You Have Been Outbid! This cant be right! They cant do that to you! It's just not fair!But wait, theres still 15 seconds left to go.You frantically type in a higher bid and you're greeted with-!Listing ended!No. No, It cant have ended.But it has.Does that scenario sound fmailiar to you?I think every eBayer has experienced that at time or other.I know I have!There has to be a simpler way. And there is.Enter the Sniper.SniperWare, as it has become known, is a program that will place a last second bid on your behalf.Many of these types of Auto-Bid Programs cliam a 95% to 99% success rate at placing the winning bid.No more sitting staring at your computer counting down the minutes to try and place that winning bid cause with Sniperware you simply enter the details of the auction you want to bid on, the maximum bid you are prepared to make and that's it.You don't even have to be at your computer. You don't even have to be at home come to that.SniperWare generally comes in two flavours.1.
Web BasedWith a Web based program you will usually pay a small fee per use (although you are not usually charged anything if you fail to win the auction). Most of the on-line programs will alolw you to make the first few Snipes at no charge.2. Downloaded Sniper Software.In that instance the Sniper Software Program is downloaded onto your own computer.
The upfront cost is more but there are no ongoing fees and many of thsee programs can be downloaded on a trial basis for free.There are many Sniper programs to choose from.
