I am actually nervous about it. I don't bid on a lot of auctions and usually just manually snipe. But I will be in a meeting today when the auction ends and thought I would try it. It's not an expensive card but it is a card that I would like to own and I would hate to miss out on the chance to win it. So this thing had better work.

    That's odd Chris. I signed up for justsnipe and used it for the first time last night. Low dollar Thomas card...set my snipe at $5.59 at 5 seconds. It didn't bid though because at 14 seconds someone bid $5.71. It seems promising though.

    Never has failed me, unless of course my snipe was too low.


    it has always fired off.

    I seem to win more auctions when I use justsnipe. I really like the fact that you get 5 free snipes as well.

    Thanks Ross. I've been looking for the card for awhile now and if the mark is as hard to find as the seller says it is then I think I will be happy with it. Especially for as well centered as the card is. And it was a lot cheaper than a NQ 6.

    I agree, however I'd send it in for a review if the value is substanial (difference between a 6 mk and a straight 6.

    I use justsnipe as well. It's only failed to fire a snipe off for me once out of maybe 150 so far, and luckily it wasn't on a have to have card. Also, if you're using their free service, the snipes go in with 8 seconds remaining. You have to pay for the service that fires them off with 5 seconds or less. I've never paid justsnipe a dime. I almost feel bad about that image
    "My father would womanize, he would drink. He would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Sometimes he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament. Our childhood was typical. Summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring we'd make meat helmets. When we were insolent we were placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds - pretty standard really."

    I'm very pleased with justsnipe.

    I recall having 1 problem on an auction but the positives more than outweigh it.
    So basically my kid won't be able to go to college, but at least I'll have a set where the three most expensive cards are of a player I despise ~ CDsNuts

    This sniping thing could be dangerous for my bank account. I set another snipe last night and won this.
