Sniping....Good or Bad??

In Response To: Oh the Pain fo a Failed Snipe.... (Charles Davis CA R-5943)
Thought I would make a seperate post for a better response.

You have hit on something that has been bugging me for awhile! I usually will have two screens open with one to refresh and the other to bid (snipe) within 8 seconds. My first snipe was a Dodge Viper!! Now that I occasionally sell chips and other casino items, it seems rude to snipe one of you guys or someone who has bought from me before. In fact I will check the bidders and bid a couple hours early if I recognize them. The problem is, I kind of use sniping as a way to not get caught up in a bidding war, because if you lose, the auction is over. The question is how do you feel about being sniped? Is it a good or bad practice to snipe?

Irony.....a moraly confused politician!!
