Yes....both times was Ebay kicking off the sniping services. However, with the vast majority of people who snipe versus people who place "regular" bids on Ebay, maybe the outcome would have been the same, whether they blocked sniping software or just shut down the whole auction. Either way, it is a horrible situation for Ebay to put sellers through, and they should have some sort of culpability in what transpired.
