Does anyone know of a program that bids last minute for you, for Mac OS X? Here is one for the PC: Click Here OR Here


Here is the description of the program:
"Paragon Auction Sniper for eBay is the bargain hunter of the year for all fans of eBay auctions. Your bid is placed automatically at the last minute at the end of the auction. As soon as the bid is activated and all the bids parameters are set, the fully automated Assistant monitors the complete auction process. All changes are entered and stored. Only at the end of the auction the Assistant begins to make the bids automatically until the defined limit, all within the interval of 10 seconds minimum: to bid, to check, to outbid. You can save money by avoiding the initial 'price raising' of auctions, you will not miss the end of an auction and every bid can be set precisely to the cent. This version supports all eBay Web site formats."

Thanks
-Dan

Also bidwatcher , which is available in Fink. I have won several auctions with it at the last sec. It runs in X11, though.

I second Jbidwatcher now that it's X-ified. It may still be a bit java ugly but it works with non-US Ebays as well and for that I give it a 10+

Dunno, never used any of them. Found them all just trying to help you out. I might have a look at JBidwatcher though, seeing as it's free and those others I posted aren't.
