when you have decided you really want an item it is best to use a snipe service

vwry true, never show your hand ahead of time. Determine your highest bid (and then add 10% or more if you’re really smitten), then set your bid and let the snipe service do its job. Mine executes with 6 seconds left. Always be prepared to lose and not have regrets that someone put in a crazier bid than yours.

I did that exact thing. Unfortunately, their sniping was better...

Oh well, I have a new Cannondale problem (which will turn into windchimes I think), a Losa-Cassani to restore, an unpainted Massi and a Univega mini-project to complete.

I hear you! I lost out on a very nice pair of drilled chainrings which I believe belonged to an Italvega Superlight at one time (supposedly taken off of a Schwinn Paramount for the auction so likely a transplant) that was listed at a $185 BIN price, I didn't take it because I thought it was too high for a used pair of 52T/42T drilled Campagnolo chainrings. The seller put it back up for sale at a $175 BIN price, but someone put a bid on it before I could get to it. About 4 hours before the auction was to end, that same person put in another bid - uh oh, that usually signifies they want it bad and increased their proxy bid. If you're really bad, you can put in dummy bids to determine the proxy bid and then cancel, but the bid trail is there. So I put in a BIG jump in my snipe bid and waited. At the end, my 6 seconds to go bid of $258 was not enough and his automatic incremental bid of $263 outbid me. He wanted it more than me and was willing to pay plenty for it. I'm sorry to have lost it but that's the way it goes. I'm also sorry that I caused him to spend a lot more, but that's the way ebay auction, plus the seller got more for their charity (its a bike co-op where proceeds go to charity). Here's the rings, would you have wanted some nice drillium and paid that much for it, used? I know I would for that special bike.
