Re:Why snipe?

I don't get it either. If the item always goes to the bidder with the highest maximum, then the sniper wins because he's proxy bidding, not because he's sniping. So what if snipers win over "human nature" (read idiocy) if simple proxy bidding would achieve the same result.

The multiple bids feature makes sense but I don't see why these bids would have to be snipes.
