ShrimpP Posted July 9, 2016 Report Share Posted July 9, 2016 What's "sniping"? I looked it up, and it's apparently placing a higher bid at the last second? But with the 5 minute extension after a new bid, isn't "sniping" negated? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes your correct and it does sound redundant to state the "No sniping rule" but its better to be safe than sorry and try to eliminate any confusion. If anyone has any questions or problems please PM me anytime. I will be moderating the auctions. dr0p, ShrimpP and mayphly 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
