As an afterthought. If a bidder placed a snipe with both gavelsnipe and gixen as an insurance bid, I assume that you would not be bidding against yourself as they are both under the same Ebay user ID. I have often bid manually with a Gavelsnipe bid in place on an item and only got it for the highest amount needed to win, even though the Gavelsnipe max and the manually entered max bid were both higher than the winning bid.....
Correct....you can't bid against yourself. So while your bids will appear "stacked" the money should look identical to one another.
