Cheapest snipe tool

apprentice_tycoon

I use www.auctionsniper.com. I also have a link to it my auctions with a few lines explaining how it works, I get 3 free snipes each time someone signs up. At one stage I had over 110 free snipes to use so that is a lot of people taking up the reference and using it.
I've had no problems with it, I'd say that it's very reliable

I also use auctionsniper and its only 25 cents per snipe about 15p... and that only if you win... I find it very reasonable

I'd be careful there. Links like this are against eBay rules and would give somebody an excuse to have your auctions pulled if they were motivated to report them. It's almost like "pyramid selling" as you've included a referrer ID there.
But I agree that Auction Sniper is one of the more reliable tools there. I wouldn't touch some of the sites mentioned on this thread with a cliché

I recommend https://www.bidnapper.com . i think if you do it for 6 months its pretty cheap. free trial too!

Well blow me down! I didn't know that....the thing is I don't really want to take the paragraph explaining how it works out of my listing because I know that it's a really useful tool to use for all the reasons previously mentioned.

I'm not in the least bothered about taking the link out and losing the referrers free snipes as I have over 100 left to use, that will keep me going for about 3 years at the rate I buy at but can I mention the name of auctionsniper? it's the only one I'd want to recommend by name

eidt - while we are talking about links, I have a link to a currency convertor for overseas bidders to convert the postage quotes into their currency - is this OK? I've had it on my pages for years and no-one has mentioned it.

Strictly speaking it's probably not but it's a really good idea! The rather draconain links policy is here.
To be honest I wouldn't worry too much.

Edit: Expand the "Additional Information" box on the above page and it specifically prohibits

Links that encourage buyers to place their eBay bids through a site other than eBay

amongst other things.
