I loved your story and that's the kind of business I am trying to build with my wife.

One quick question.

There exists many other sites offering the same service at even cheaper price points (e.g. EZ sniper, Myibidder, BidSlammer, GIXEN, JBidWatcher, esniper, AuctionStealer, Goofbit, etc.)

How do you survive in such a commoditized market?


Word of mouth, dedication to customer service, being first... and probably a good dose of luck.


I used it once to buy a laptop on ebay in 1999. It saved me.


How cool is that! And thank you.


Thanks, I used your service to buy a guitar I really didn't want to miss out on. You should update the copyright notice from 2015, though.


Thanks for the business and the tip! I bought the site itself due to my guitar addiction!


Oh amazing! I haven’t bought stuff on eBay in a while but I’ve absolutely used your service before. I remember using it A LOT back in the early 2000s - it was my secret eBay super power before others knew about it. Thanks again and so glad it’s been life sustaining for you. Cheers.


Really appreciate your business. I have used it as my guitar buying superpower myself. To the tune of 200 or so :0
