I think he was trying to place the bid "the old fashioned way." His 'snipe' reference was to placing a bid in the last 10 seconds, which is a snipe. He doesn't say he's using a snipe service.
Were you on an app or desktop/laptop computer browser? I have seen the app be off by a few seconds, and in some cases show that an item ended and then still had two seconds to go, where more bids got in. Best to make end-of-auction bids on a desktop computer with about 8 seconds to go.
