Free or near free is fine.

In this same vein has anyone concocted or found a bid sniper that works on Bidorbuy?

most bidorbuy auctions, ones I've used anyway, extend with late bids- which is a much better system imho

That's if there's someone around to counter bid, that's one of the beauties of sniping, ready to place your bid at whatever ungodly hr it may be. On bidorbuy if there's no one else around you get the item at the lowest possible price. Ive got some good stuff on bidorbuy but I'm not always keen to wait till 11:45 to do an old school bid snipe.
 
Bump, come on heathens, there must be someone who uses a bid sniper, most awesome thing ever!
 
For all the ardent acolytes of eBay I have found the holy grail:

There is no point really. Bidorbuy extends the time and also notifies the person being out bid via SMS.

Check it out before the paranoid sets in. It's 100% legit.

Suppose your account could be hijacked in some form, obviously PayPal is a separate login so your money/credit card isn't exposed or risked.

That's if there is someone around at whatever time the bid closes or if they have sms alerts setup. Often bidorbuy auctions close with no one around so sniping would be handy just to save the time hanging around at midnight but anyway.

What about automatic out bidding on Bidorbuy? This just seems like too much effort.

I'm afraid if you need me to explain anything more then this subject is far too high grade for you.

Granted the premise is of course that the opposing bidder hopefully hasn't put in a large automatic bid but from my experience more often than not that is not the case, you just have to be around at auction close to place one or 2 bid increments to win. The normal bid rules apply, this doesn't circumvent any of those it just automates it. The bid sniper does it like every good robot does, with just about zero effort from the human.
