Sniper for ebay bid auctions 4+

Clever, fair, simple. 5 stars

Absolutely brilliant. Have won many bids for a fraction of the price I would have paid without this app. You pay a very small fee for credits, which are allocated to the bids you put in, but only spent if you win. So for instance if you bid on 10 item this requires 10 credits to be placed, if you win 5 of them, you will spend 5 of the credits and you will have 5 left. Very clever, fair, simple. Brilliant app. Little bit clunky at first but follow the instructions , give it a couple minutes to load the pages (it can be a bit slow) and you get very used to using it.

No 2FA

Tried to do the right thing by writing to you via your contact us form on your website but it errors saying to check my internet connection (which is fine), so feedback is my only remaining option.

The problem I have is that I didn’t even get to try this as the first thing is asks me to do is disable my two factor authentication on my eBay account. Enabling 2FA on as much as I can is my way of ensuring the security of my accounts and my personal data and financial information. The last thing I want to do is disable it. It would be so much better if your app supported this extra layer of security thereby demonstrating how seriously you take the security of peoples account info. It would also help protect you against accusations of hacked accounts which I also read in the app feedback. Surely there is an API or some other method that can take an initial 2FA authentication, and then the end user can set that app to trusted, thereby not removing 2FA from their eBay account?

Thanks

This is no longer an issue because the newest version of the app runs without entering any passwords. Your 2FA can stay enabled. You just connect the app to ebay one and its done. Please try it and rethink this negative review. Thanks a lot.

Not perfect.

App has always worked perfectly for me until now. It has a remote system so you just set your bid up, pay for your credits and it makes the bid for you automatically without you needing to be online or even awake.
Today, I didn’t win an auction I had set with the settings I always use, and the system gave me the error message couldn’t bid offset too short not enough time.
Therefore in future I will set a longer time before end of auction for the bid and hope it works. I’m very disappointed because it was a gift for my son that he really wanted, and I would have won if I didn’t use the app. It is annoying that the app allows me to select a bidding time which it then fails to achieve.

Hello Tootoobabs and thank you for the feedback. The newest version of the app has a warning implemented if you set a buffer time lower than 4 sec. This is not recommeded by us and your chances of winning may be lower because of the ebay sytem beeing busy and not accepting this late bid. So please leave it at 4 sec. as recommended.
