What is the thinking behind only having buyers see snipes & not sellers?
As a seller, I would feel much better knowing that a snipe or two is set if I don't have early bids---would be much more likely not to end an auction early.
On the other hand, showing Buyers that a couple of snipes are set may make them say "What's the use"?
Am I wrong in that thinking?

Fred - Leon mis-typed - only sellers can see how many snipes are set (and of course, not the snipe amounts). We felt providing that to the sellers would put them more at ease as with sniping being integrated, more people will use it. On the one hand, more people will be using sniping, on the other hand, sellers get to know some snipes are coming in, which they've never been able to tell before.
