IMHO Any good and well-made service website = website design&scripting + support (forum, etc) So you can count yourself as a part of Gixen. |

As far as I know Mario is the sole owner and runner of the site... all the other contributers (like myself) are just normal users/hangers on/supporters :-) |

I agree. Anyways Gixen is great! I have tried other snipers before, some of which my bids actually got rejected when i could have won with my bid amount. I really appreciate what you guys have done here, providing ebay lovers such great service without asking for a cent. I will definitely recommend Gixen to my friends. Thanks! |

I personally snipe because I want to sleep during that time so "sleeping" and "watching" cause a conflict with each other :( |

| I just thought I'd follow up on this post.
eBay has a new countdown tool that is in Beta. It continuously coundowns remaining time on an auction and updates prices as bids come in. Last night I used it to monitor my second Gixen snipe. With one second left, I received notification from eBay that I had bid on the item (Gixen snipe) and was high bidder. I won the auction. It was way cool to watch the bid come in. You might want to try it. :lol: :o npcrolls |

|
| I submitted my first Gixen bid today after my experience last night.
I had two auctions ending at exactly the same time. One had no bids as the minimum was fairly high. The other had multiple bids. So I snipped a bid on the first item 10% over the bid minimum with 25 seconds to go. eBay immediately responded indicating I had been outbid. I was sufficiently flustered by what happened on the first snipe, that I didn't get the bid on the second snipe in on time. It went for 25% less than the miximum I planned to submit. Bummer! Never again! So I logged onto Gixen for the first time later last evening and set up my first snipe for this afternoon. The item closed while I was on a conference call with a business partner. Once the call was over I leisurely logged onto Gixen to find out how I did. I won. This is way too easy. Tonight I have four more snipes already to go. Assuming things go well (bids get submitted), I'll move over to the premium service, even if I don't win any of them. They are all low ball bids I wouln't take the time to mess with the old way. Thank you. npcrolls |
