Question on sniper tool

Do you think any of those free eBay auction sniper tools has any connection with eBay? Or sell the information to some big sellers? Sometime I wonder if they know your max price they can pump up the price to make you pay for the max price. Any thoughts on this?

    I've used Bidnapper for years and have always been happy with it, not free but really cheap and I've never had reason to suspect them of anything. Your concern could stem from the fact that the coins you're interested in are also of interest to hoards of snipe bidders and tend to skyrocket in the last 5 seconds. I feel sure that your email address etc. is being sold when you use those services, but I doubt that it's being sold to anyone with specific numismatic interest.

    I've used one and the shortest time that it will make a bid is the last 3 seconds. I'm usually beaten out on the
    items I want by either the fastest gun/ bidder in the west or another service that offers 1 or 2 seconds.

    Anybody know one image
    No,no- the kids and the cat are all right honey.
    It's just that I got my PCGS grades.
