[quote="Cupid"]Gixen will place the bid you ask it to at the offset of the snipe. However, and I think probably the reason you asked the question (?), that doesn't mean you pay any more if you win since, on Ebay, so long as you use the same account, outbidding yourself does not increase the auction price. That said, I wouldn't recommend placing early bids in general, but that's because it reveals your interest early and encourages other bidders to outbid you and potentially increase the price more than if you just enter one bid of your maximum, at the end of the auction. On Ebay you'll only ever have to pay at most one bid increment more than a different bidder is prepared to bid before the auction ends.[/quote]
