Paying others to snipe items for you just doesn't make sense to me. Occasionally I'll use Vrane.com (1 free snipe at a time), but for the most part I just use JBidWatcher. It's a free (no cost for the software or for snipes), safe (no trojan horses or any malware) program that you install on your PC (no having to give your username and passwords to potentially non-secure sites), and it allows you to either enter the auctions by item number or by dragging and dropping the URL into the app (a major time saver). I've been using it for a few years now, and I'd say that almost 95% of all of my eBay purchases are made through it each month. As long as you have an always on PC and always on Internet connection (cable modem, etc.), it's the best snipe system possible.

And no, I have no financial interest or any stake in the program or company. I'm just a happy customer.
