No, I don't think so. First of all, eBay ruined their system years ago
when they started pushing sellers towards "buy it now" auctions by making
the fee structure favor those types of auctions. Secondly, snipe programs
have been around for a few years now -- I remember using esnipe back
in 2004-2005. Before sniping websites existed, I, and many other astute
collectors were sniping auctions manually with a stopwatch and a quick
mouse finger. No, many things have led to the demise of the auction
style listing, with sniping websites playing a minor role. I blame eBay
themselves for the demise of regular auction listings.
