The current eBay policies make it possible for users to retract their bids within one hour of placing them, and some users abuse this policy in order to win an auction in a fraudelent way. This is in order to take advantage of eBay bid increments - ideally you want your bid to arrive before all the other pre-scheduled bids, but late enough not to leave manual bidders enough time to react.Ī series of recent events (see forum link below) made me reconsider this. Opinions on this differ, as a lot depends on what other users do, but in general my recommendation has always been 8 seconds. One of the most frequently asked questions when it comes to sniping has been - what is the best offset to use (number of seconds before auction end when your snipe is sent away to eBay). The reasons for this are described below. Gixen will from now on, for all mirror subscribers, make an additional attempt to place a bid one second before auction end.
