Interesting, rare and sometimes cheap ebay items.

Just be aware that it is a Custom toy and Custom box... as the original Cookie Crisp Jazz came in a baggie and looked much like the original Jazz (just missing a couple of stickers).

By sniping it means that I will input my max bid I am willing to make and prevents me from bidding any higher as I snipe in the last 5 seconds only. A good way of preventing me from having buyers regret. Sure I miss out on things occasionally but I am much happier missing a few than regretting how much I spent.

Revisiting the sniping topic ....

What I want to know is how a sniper knows to bid only a few cents more than the highest losing bid, especially when there is multiple snipers at play. Is there a sniping tool?

There are sniping tools but I haven't used them so not sure about the few cents more bit. This may be the max bid of the winner and current lead bidder as if I'm trying to snipe at a $50 max and the current lead bidder has his max at $50.01 then he wins by 1 cent.

I'm also a fan of sniping for the reasons that Raider said.

Basically I use the rule of just putting in my max bid I'm willing to pay and adding .11 or 1.11 to the bid. Most people bid max in round numbers so if someone bids 50.00 and I bid 50.11 I'm going to win when I snipe assuming their max bid is under 50 at the time.

That's what I do. I never put a round number, I always put it up a little bit.
