If eBay disabled the ability to snipe bids (if they even can is another story), then everyone would be on an even playing field. But I strongly feel that those that snipe (and do it correctly, doh!) are at an advantage.
If you can't beat, join them.

I've found it's essential for me since I have a short attention span. 
I cannot begin to tell you the number of times I've gotten the 15-minute heads up from eBay's app when an item I'm watching is ending soon and forgotten about it and missed out, anyway. It got to a point where it was happening so frequently that I had to go the snipe route. If eBay ended it somehow and I were forced to bid earlier, I'd have no problems with that. But until then, it's a lifesaver for me.
