For the second time in 3 days, Auction Raptor failed to enter a bid for me on an important auction. Has anyone else had any problems and are there any strong recommendations for other services? Once is forgivable, twice . . .

<< <i>Justsnipe has been getting my bids in on time since I've been using them. Check them out, they offer 5 freebies p/week. >>
Who only sets 5 snipes a week? Anyway, I use the unlimited snipes for $5.00/month. It's been great!
<< <i>Do you guys snipe all auctions, just not big money stuff? Guess it makes sense, as you would not be held hostage to the auction. >>
For me, it's all auctions unless I see something I want with less than 2 minutes remaining. (The cutoff time to enter a snipe on JustSnipe).
Also, for the last 3 or 4 months, they haven't been charging
me the $5 per month fee for unlimited snipes. I wonder if
someone is sleeping.

crave,
i think it will be the opposite. the guy who really wants it the most (and can afford it!) will get it. what is worse is seeing a card you want with a $100 snipe and two or more people get into a bidding war to see who has the most testostorone and days before the auction is over the card is at $200.
snipes let cooler heads prevail. i snipe so much that i would be broke if i won everything. sometimes i get bargains, sometimes i get outbid, sometimes i get outbid by a lot where my bid doesn't even register. at the end of the day what was supposed to happen, happened.
i would love it if everyone sniped. each bidder getting one shot and let's see where we stand.
Lately some of the auctions ,have been horribly bogged down , come showtime. Three weeks ago, I had about 10 1983 topps that I had on watch. I had multiple screens set with my bids and all I had to do was hit the final bid button. With over 3 minutes to go , ebay's servers had a brain fart and I was unable to even put one bid in. I have comcast highspeed and quickly check the upline speed.It was cooking at close to 700kb's. It was them and not me. All them cards sold for under $2 with most at $0.99. An auction service , right there and then would've paid for it self, put I really trust the service I have. Live by the sword , die by the sword.
