Re: [NTLK] [OT] eBay sniping

I thought that sniping was a bid made very late (maybe 1 second before

outbid
the winner by a teeny bit.

To me it was holding off on bidding (so that you didn't drive the price
up during the auction) and then trying to outbid the ongoing low amount
at the very last second. ;)
