Tutorial
Introduction:
If you have a question on how to get started, or how to use one of the more advanced functions of EZ sniper, you will find the answer here. Please read through this information before emailing us. These pages contain answers to thousands of questions on how to use our service that have been asked over the past several years. Problems with the site or service are addressed on the
Troubleshooting pages.
Here are the topics you will find in the Tutorial:
- Bidding
Bidding is core to our business and such a large topic, we have divided the subject into these headings. Click the heading to get more information on:
How to Bid
I have joined. How do I bid?
You need to be logged into your EZ sniper account and have a bidding account for the auction site you want to snipe in order to enter a bid for sniping. Just login by entering your username and password in the
'Member Login' fields provided in the upper right corner of the home page. That will take you to the
'My Auctions' page where you may enter bids on the
'Add Interface', and see the bids you have entered into our database for sniping. It is from this page that most of the functions are accessed.
Add Interface
Copy and paste the auction number from the auction page and place it in the appropriate field of the
'add interface', enter your bid amount in the currency of the auction, select the auction site, and click the
'SNIPE!' button. Your bid will be added to our sniping program. Your verification that your bid is in our database and ready for sniping is the bid listing which will appear just below the
'add interface'. Verify your bid is correct on the bid listing. Do not enter a '#' (pound/number sign) in front of the auction number, and do not enter any currency-related signs on your bid. Your bid must only contain numbers, and a single decimal in the appropriate place.
The
Contingency field is used when you want to cancel later bids after winning an earlier auction. The
Quantity field is used to bid on Dutch auctions in which there is more than one item up for bid in a single auction. Remember, the proxy system is not used in Dutch auctions, so your maximum bid will be delivered and used.
