Default Sniping win percentage - What is yours?

Posted By: Frank B


Curious what percent of snipes are being won by buyers here.
Mine is at 18% over the last 10 months/1700 snipes. A stat
showing how often you were 2nd best would be interesting but
my software has nothing like that.

103 wins
74 losses

58% -- but most of these snipes are for a couple sets I'm pursuing, so getting a good deal is secondary to getting the card I need.

I have a sneaking suspicion that "IDontBelieveWhatIjustSaw"'s is significantly higher.

Geez Tim, you must be snipping with one of those new high faluting fancy SCOPES!!!!!

I don't recall EVER winning via a snipe.. I've tried it more than a handful of times but prefer to bid as I go..too lazy to setup a snipe.  If there were a program that made sniping easy for the lazy folks like me, I would likely use it but until then, I will sit on the sidelines and cheer...

Marty I don't know if something is wrong with the numbers or I'm that far out of sorts, but that's what the site says. I use Blazing Bid and have found it to be a great tool and really easy to use.

I will second the Blazing Bid comment. It is as simple as it gets, as long as you can copy and paste... 2 of the 3 computer skills I possess.

I am batting aroung .400 on raw cards and .250 on graded. I am usually the first underbidder on anything I put a strong bid on that I lose.
