About the same of both. How would that matter? It's either being done

getting edged out, or the seller getting shortchanged.
How do you get "edged out"???? You either bid what you were willing
to pay, or YOU were being a cheap ass "shady" buyer.




And yet, you didn't shove someone out of the way to buy it, did you?

Snipers don't "shove" any one of the way.





So, you're sniping to get the item as low as possible, without giving
somone a chance to outbid you. Yes, we've established that.

Do you even get that you are talking to several people?? Most of whom
haven't said that they snipe.



Do you ever watch the TV show "The Price is Right"? I bet when one
person says, "600 dollars, Bob.", and the next person says, "$601", you
go nuts. It's allowed, but it's JUST NOT RIGHT, damn it.

Well, haven't watched it in years, but yea, that's exactly the
asshole-ish behavior that sniping is.

And exactly what $ amount wouldn't be "asshole-ish behavior "??
Perhaps that person also thought the price was 600, Should she say
700 just to keep YOU happy?
