I've never cheated either; I was merely looking into cheating.

Don't worry, not laughing at you. This is probably one of the best lines I've ever seen on here and one of probably 2-3 that actually made me laugh.

If I use one, I use auctionsniper.com and I think it's about a quarter for each auction that you snipe and actually win. I don't know of any others and have used this one for about the last decade so I just stuck with what I know.

I can't say I use it a lot though. Maybe around 5 times a year? I use it for the sole purpose of avoiding people bidding up the auction price and trying to keep my price as low as possible. It bids with about 3-6 seconds left. It's no more different than sitting at the computer in the last few seconds and bidding.

With that said, I don't recall using the service unless I know I was going to be away from the computer or really wanted the item and didn't want to risk ebay messing up in the last few seconds. That only happened to me once about 12 years ago but I still remember it. Otherwise, I'll be at the computer and bid in the last minute or so. I think the last time I used it (that I recall) was in late '09 or early '10 on a 2009 Finest Evan Longoria Red refractor. It ended during the middle of the day and I knew I was going to be on the road when it ended so the snipe was placed and won the card for me while I was driving north on the New Jersey Turnpike.
