    $120 does seem a bit steep...

    I have a program does the same thing, and it's called Microsoft Excel.

    The colors make me want to use a corkscrew on my eyeballs, and that's just from a screenshot.

    A friend of mine downloaded this program, then shot himself in the face with a shotgun.

    My own experiences were somewhat better-- I only used a .357 magnum.

    i agree this program can be run in dos and have a better G.U.I.
    I wouldnt pay 120$ for it... let alone 1$ for it.
    functionality wise it has a few handy features.
    but after the first 5 minutes of using it you want to cut your fingers off with a pair of vice grips.
    i'm not sure why but microsoft defender poped up and said this program contains malicious code that may disclose my personal information.
    so i deleted it after that.. don't need any more spyware on my machine.

    TO AUTHOR -- I can make this program look better than Windows XP for a reasonable amount of money. I have 7 years of Visual Basic programming experience with very extensive experience in User Interface design. Dumplinger(at)Yahoo.com

    -Lord- does not even know what he is talking about. This is NOT sniping software!. I have been using this for awhile, and it has really been a help for my auction managements. I am not a big fan of the interface, but the fuctionality it great... would be nice if it could auto download Paypal fees though.....

    -Lord- , thank you for the very insightful review of this software. Why don't we also rate software based on the weather in your town, or your inability to perform in bed? :)

    Sniper software for eBay auctions is BULL****. You should be interactive and win auctions based on your bids the FAIR way.

    The author need to hear user complain about the user interface. it need to be improved alot.
    for a moments to reduce it, it is better to give options to use what color use for shooting star theme. next is improving all area.
    hope the author implement it and next version much better in the interface.

    I know 2 things just by looking at the screenshot:

    1. It's written in VB
    2. Because it's written in VB by someone who has no understanding of the user interface design concepts, it makes me want to slap someone ;)

    I will cry out loud if someone else makes a VB program that looks like this. For Bill Gate's sake, learn some GUI design before throwing together a few pages in VB and calling it a program.

    So, good job ;)

    I just sta rted using it, but I can see it's going to help out a lot if you have a large number of auctions. The author is quick with support too, he answered my question via email within an hour.

    I have over 50 auctions up at any given time on eBay and would not be caught dead without this program. It saves me hours a week. It took a little while to learn but well worth it. The authors have been fast on their feet to keep up with eBays constant format changes.
