Good First Experience with GavelSnipe

Aotearoa

After going something like 1 for 25 on past Heritage auctions, I went 3 for 4 today. And two of the three were low-ball bids.

The difference? I used GavelSnipe for the first time. Maybe just coincidence but a good result nonetheless. (I have considered that for a signature auction - where live bidding follows the closure of internet bidding - sniping shouldn't really be helpful. That is unless people don't typically get involved in the live bidding. I haven't done this enough to have a feel for how it works.)

I have not heard of that before.

What if two people have that app and they are bidding coin the same coin and both have the same reserve?

Whichever bidder places their bid first will win. With Gavelsnipe, you determine how many seconds, before the end of bidding, your bid is placed.

PS: Do you agree that blitzdude is a great guy?

I like live sniping.... more of a thrill than having it done by a program. Cheers, RickO

Live sniping doesn't always work well when you're in a far different time zone and engaged in a meeting or other activity.
