[photo-3d] Sniping
I think that the only time anyone would use a sniping program is if
they have "auction fever" - a well known complaint, sufferers of
which find themselves unable to let anything go to another bidder
irrespective of how illogical the bid may be.
I feel that if you are bidding on anything (even in a "real world"
auction) you should know what the maximum price would be that
you were prepared to pay.
With Ebay, if you initially bid that amount, they will slowly increase
your bid until it reaches your maximum.
If your maximum is right, you will get the goods - possibly cheaper.
If your maximum is not enough, you won't get it.
It all seems very simple to me.
