Who's sitting here right now waiting to snipe an eBay auction?

I sit here flashing back & forth between the forums & eBay, watching for interesting coin auctions to end, either waiting to snipe or
watch the sniping.

  • I've got 1 snipe in tonight and my heart is racing

  • I gotta try that sniper. Getting sniped at the last 2 or 3 seconds is aggrevating! On another note: make damn sure the sniper ain't got the sights on you zig-zag zig-zag...image
    What is money, in reality, but dirty pieces of paper and metal upon which privilege is stamped?

    I just sniped a 1938 D/S Pcgs MS66 Buffalo tonight so I'm done. Have a couple over the weekend to snipe but i'll be goose hunting so I hope the DSL doesn't fail me.

    I am sitting here also, but don't know if I will make it to auction close. It's 11pm in MN, and the auction doesn't close yet for another hour and 40 minutes. Yea, I know I could use software, but I like doing it myself.

    I also prefer to snipe myself. Problem is, with ebay, you gotta wade thru all the junk first. I hadn't sniped anything in a couple of weeks until I sniped a 66FS war nick last night.

    I don't buy coins online...period.

    No need to snipe supplies, and rarely is there a fight over numismatic books I'm interested in. So, no snipes for me, I work late into the morning hours.

    No doubt!!

    Anyway, I'm waiting for payday before I can start sniping again.
  • I have two that I have my eye on over the next day or two. I thought I was the only one that had my heart race - Sniper fever! image
    SNIKT!

    I'm usually the only bidder on most of the stuff I buy!

    We ARE watching you.

  • Anyone hear anymore on the rumor that ebay may alter the ending so if a final bid does not stand unraised for 30 seconds the auction contiunes?

    I can think of a dozen reasons not to have high capacity magazines, but it's the reasons I haven't thought about that I need them.

    No,where was your source for this romor?

    Wow. I always figured that would be the way to end sniping, but I didn't want to see it happen.

    I'm going to put that on a separate topic so it get's more visibility-
