<p>[QUOTE="Mac McDonald, post: 6553104, member: 117420"]Congrats on 25 Barber qtrs (in any condition) for under $160...just one in XF or AU could easily cost you more. That said, you don't necessarily have to use a sniping service...you can do it yourself, and I speak from experience...I got pretty good at it and it saved me considerable $$$ while getting some great deals overall, most of the time. I'd say I won 90-95 percent of my snipe bids...but I lost on a couple here/there and it takes a while to learn the how, when what to bid, things to look for from others bidding, etc. But it's not foolproof and don't want to mislead you. I've never used a service for it...never quite understood or trusted how they worked or wanted to relinquish that much control over my bidding $. I would even set my alarm once or twice to get up in the early AM to bid, if it was something I really wanted. Bad part is, if you're gone much of the time when your auctions end, or a seller often ends theirs in those wee hours, it can be problematic and a service may help. Good luck.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
