<p>[QUOTE=&quot;vibr0nic, post: 1383138, member: 29338&quot;]We&#039;re talking about &quot;bid sniping&quot; and the origins of that term.</p><p><br /></p><p>Again, people were &quot;bid sniping&quot; AND CALLING IT &quot;bid sniping&quot; BEFORE automated software existed.&nbsp; Get it? The term &quot;bid sniping&quot; did not originate with software. It originated when people were sending in bids at the last possible moment manually. Now software has automated it.</p><p><br /></p><p>Since you have declared Wikipedia as an unreliable source to contradict your claims (which is actually quite laughable on a non-controversial topic like this, but whatever), then maybe this eBay guide will suffice -&nbsp; <a href="http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?type=3&amp;campid=5335874456&amp;toolid=10001&amp;mpre=http%3A%2F%2Freviews.ebay.com%2FSniping-Is-it-Good-Strategy-for-Winning-Auctions%3Fugid%3D10000000001548836" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?type=3&amp;campid=5335874456&amp;toolid=10001&amp;mpre=http%3A%2F%2Freviews.ebay.com%2FSniping-Is-it-Good-Strategy-for-Winning-Auctions%3Fugid%3D10000000001548836" rel="nofollow">http://reviews.ebay.com/Sniping-Is-it-Good-Strategy-for-Winning-Auctions?ugid=10000000001548836</a></p><p><br /></p><p>It says: </p><p><br /></p><p>&quot;<b>The Sniper</b></p><p>Whether you snipe by physically waiting until the last minute, or use a sniping service or system, you still need to decide what your limit bid will be.&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>Oh, so there ARE different ways to snipe - manually/physically or with software/service.&nbsp; Thanks eBay.&nbsp; Case CLOSED.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
