What software should I use to win ebay auctions?

August 17, 2004 2:14 AM

For those who snipe on ebay, what software/plugin/service/whatever would you recommend? I feel uncomfortable giving a third party my ebay login info, if that's how these services work.

I've used AuctionStealer for a couple years now, and no one's stolen my login info yet.

Auction Sniper is one of the original services, has been around a while, and has never made me regret providing them the appropriate information.

auction sniper works and hasn't ever given my a problem, nor my brother, who uses the service regularly.

This question was asked less than 12 hours ago. Scroll down. :)

In it, I recommended Phantombidder. Used it for years with great success. You only pay for auctions you win.

Response by poster: dobbs, a question about whether to ebay snipe or not was asked but I didn't see any mention of sniping services. Thus, my question here.

Thanks for all your responses. I'll check those services out.

Oops, sorry Taco. Wasn't trying to sound bossy. Just thought there might be some stuff in there (the "which snipe service" part of the Q was with the more inside), though you're right, most of the posters seemed to ignore it.
