I am not very familiar with eBay, but I've tried some other online auctions before. Some online auction systems have this time extension 'feature' whereby a bid placed within the last few minutes of an auction's end time would extend it by another fixed few minutes. If eBay has this 'feature', it would make sniping totally useless. In which case, sniping would have the same effect as proxy bidding. Does eBay do this?
bid time extension?
