Hmmmm.... just a question, what do you guys think that would happen if e-bay were offering "sniping" services themselves ? i.e. at the moment you want to place a bid, you get a menu asking:
a) place the bid now so that everybody can see it
b) place the bid now but do not show it to anyone and activate it at the auction's end
