I have never used one of these so know little about them.
I guess what I need to understand is whether:
1 - Snipers are used like the 'Maximum bid' tool (eg they will keep bidding until you win or your max is beaten)?
2 - Or they are a single shot, best offer basis?
My assumption is that the sniper works as per the top option, by quickly repeat bidding until either the max is reached, or you win by beating someone else's max.
Or are snipers used purely as a one shot, max bid tool?
What I want to know is (assuming it works as per option 1), if multiple people set up snipers for the end of one of my listings, all with their own maximum bids, would the one with the highest maximum bid definitely win?
Do they all bid with one second to go, or less, and if this is the case, is it pot luck as to how quickly eBay's software/hardware responds as to which bid will win?
