Sniping occurs when an auction is about to end. Some

Yahoo jumped in and offered a slightly higher price than the

when time ran out - won the auction. Sniping is against eBay rules, but it doesn't slow down snipers! In most cases even

if you report it the sniper will get away and

you will lose the item you so desperately wanted to earn . Unfortunately to avoid losing the

item you wanted to shoot sniper on eBay, you need to apply the sniper mentality.You must also

snipe in a way that doesn't violate eBay's rules.

Cutting can be done in two ways. The first

is the safest, but not necessarily the easiest.

Just track the item you are bidding on.

Note the auction end date and time and make sure you're on computer

and connected to the auction prior to that specific

time.The goal is to bid above the

highest bid in the last few seconds - that's the

that snipers do - or just to make sure you don't get outbid by a sniper.

Remember that sniping is against the rules, so you should log in about thirty or forty-five minutes before the

auction ends and increase your bid until the

bid is highest. . At this point, all you need to do is

keeping an eye on yourself to make sure that no one else

raises the bid. If you've been logged in for a while,

this can't be considered a gunner.

When using this method, you should know

auto contractors.It is very difficult to bid against people who use

auction software. This software is designed with a cut in mind and your chances of manually outbid the software are slim - , this which brings us to the second cutting method

- Service Cut.

Trimming services are easy to find online and

are relatively cheap. You can also purchase your own capture software. If you want to be a sniper, buying your own software is often the best option if you are bidding on a large number of items.

You simply set up the software, tell it what auction

to watch and what is the highest price you are willing to pay for the

and let the software do the work - just remember that is against rules and although eBay rarely enforces this

rule, you run the risk of being banned by eBay .

Sniper is bad if someone does it to you, but if you use it yourself to win Winning auctions can be a great thing.

On the other hand, it may not be very ethical.

Outbid someone is one thing, sniping is quite another.
