  Used it for years. Pay extra for the mirror service. I've never had mirror fail.

  I've used the free version for a few years and never had an issue.

  I use Auction Sniper
  
  They have bid groups and Bid Enhancement options and the rates are cheap. You get 3 free snips to check it out.

  Same here. Does anyone know if any of the sniper programs work with Mr. Rebates?

  Question, what is a "mirror" and what happens when three people use the softwear on the same coin?

  I switched to it after AuctionSniper.com didn't come through. No problems so far - actually I was turned on to it here after posting the AuctionSniper issues.

  Mirror means that redundant bids are executed from two geographically distant servers, Chicago and Miami I believe, in order to boost reliability. High bidder wins regardless.

  I used to use Auction Sniper, but, got tired of paying commissions and switched to Gixen years ago.

  I've used Gixen Mirror for about two and a half years, now. No problems whatsoever.

  I switched from paying for bidnip.com (poor communication, missed snipes) to gixen.comm which is free. I paid for the mirror service and have never had a problem, except when I forgot I changed my eBay login!
