Has anyone been using GavelSnipe lately? Have there been successes or are there continued failures?

What are peoples latest experiences?

I've used Gavelsnipe several times in the last couple of weeks.

No issues and won a couple of cards.

Default sniping
How is sniping different than just hitting the bid button a few seconds before the auction ends with a max bid ( other than not having to be there and physically hit the button ) ?

Was just thinking the same thing . . .

If I know I will bid up to say $1500 for something on eBay and not a penny more, why not just wait until their is 10 seconds left and enter my max bid? Never got the sniping thing. if others are willing to pay more I wont get it.

Comes in handy if you forget about an auction or are not in a position to make that last second bid.

Sure, I get that. Don't have to hang over an auction. But, isn't that 90% of the fun?

Playing golf in the Rocky Mountains today was also a lot of fun.

90% of the fun is WINNING an auction!

Sometimes the auction ends well past when I go to bed and it would be nice to have the snipe option.

Sign up for Gixen, they do not have the Capcha problems that Gavelsnipe does. Gavelsnipe is useless now...I'm not even sure they ever really even tried to fix the problem.
