I think you've got the sniping all wrong. THe sniper bid is only going to show enough more to beat you. I bid for an OPT. I bid a ridiculous price with my SuperSnipe10000 site. I paid a reasonable amount. I was going to have it, Period.Sniping only keeps your interest out of sight until it is too late to get your blood pressure up into a bidding frenzy. If you don't bid more than me, and my sniper site, you're not going to get it.
Anyway, for purposes of entertainment, I may do any of the other things which upset you so badly, it is only going to cost me my own money for purchasing the item.
live long and prosper,

Most sniping services work by submitting your maximum bid ONCE in the last seconds of the auction.If you set a "ridiculous price" and someone else uses the same logic... you have just bought something for a "ridiculous price".

be careful
I didn't say it was rational or reasonable, just that I was going to have the item come hell or high water. Fortunately nobody else decided the same thing, you are absolutely correct on that one, my high-gain, low-noise friend.
