Auction sniping : ウィキペディア英語版 | Auction sniping
Auction sniping is the practice, in a timed online auction, of placing a bid likely to exceed the current highest bid (which may be hidden) as late as possible—usually seconds before the end of the auction—giving other bidders no time to outbid the sniper. This can be done manually, by software on the bidder's computer, or by an online sniping service. Use of an online service is said to decrease the failure rate of the snipe, because the website has more reliable servers and a faster Internet connection with a less variable delay in sending data (jitter), allowing the bid to be placed closer to the deadline, even arriving within the last second. A bid sniper is a person, or software agent, which performs auction sniping. ==Banning by auction sites== While some people disapprove of auction sniping, it is not forbidden by the rules of many auction sites. For example it is permitted by eBay. eBay Germany banned ''automated'' sniping services in 2002,〔(eBay Germany Bans 'Sniping' Services )〕 but the ban was declared illegal by Berlin's County Court, and revoked.〔(Heise Online: "Sniper Software doch legal" ), Translation: (Sniper software legal after all )〕 Some auction sites, including iGavel, the New Zealand auction site TradeMe, and the real estate auction site Bid on the City, automatically extend the bid deadline by a few minutes if a bid is placed in the last moments of the auction, to give other buyers time to react.
