(They're auction-style) I've already contacted the seller, who has agreed to consider offers should his auctions go without bidders. <br /> <br />The catch is this... these are items that I would really like, and I wouldn't mind paying for, it's just that I'd prefer to pay less (human nature I guess.) <br /> <br />I'm going to be on a flight when these auctions end, so here's what I'd like to do: <br /> <br />Set snipes for all four items. <br />However, I would like the snipe to be cancelled should there be no bids. <br />If there IS a bid, then for the program to go ahead and snipe. <br /> <br />In short, I'd like to set a snipe that only snipes if there is a bid made. I fly about four hours before the auction, so I wouldn't be able to monitor these auctions past that time. <br /> <br />Is this even possible? Or are there any other suggestions? <br /> <br />Thanks for any help.</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> </table>
