Snipe Software Site Seeks Beta Testers

Bidnapper.com is looking for Beta testers to try out their online sniping utility. Sniping is when someone places a bid at the last moments before the end of an auction, hoping to snatch the item away from the previous high bidder. Bidnapper purportedly checks network congestion and traffic at the eBay auction site, enabling it to know how long before the end of the auction to submit the snipe bid. There is no charge for the Beta testing. Bidnapper may charge for their services in the future, but no pricing has been determined. http://www.bidnapper.com
