    Is there anything to stop you using 2 snipers on the same auction to be certain of getting it, or would you end up bidding against yourself?

    Hi I use Goofbay but it has messed up on a couple of occasions and I have lost the item although my snipe was higher then the winning bid. Also, on one occasion Goofbay said I had won an item but I had not. TBH I think someone esle may have been sniping the items at the same time and it went a bit crazy. I usually go for late night, bad title description, with no or low bids and I think a few other people do the same so occasionally it will clash.
    I must remember that "Money Saving" is not buying heavily discounted items that I do not need. :hello:
