2024-12-12 | Jeffery neighbors | Greatest app ever. You know all those times where you were about to get a great deal on something on an eBay auction and then someone came in and bid it up one dollar at the last minute? This may not stop that from happening every time because of the fact that guy is probably using this same app but you will win a portion of those times. And that's worth it to me. | |
2024-11-27 | G Hough | First time using and I won the auction! I was pretty nervous because I really wanted to win this auction. Such a simple interface and it worked flawlessly! Highly recommend. I do think the offset value of 8 is ideal for most auctions rather than the default value of 6. | |
2024-11-25 | Ben Melbourne | Good app, auction was ending at 4 in the morning, woke up and had won without having to wake up | |
2024-11-18 | mike benham | Great little app. Quite basic and simple but it all works as it should. Tried a few different other ones for free but happy to go for the paid version of this app for best value and unique split mirror bidding which works superbly. Not missed a bid once yet. Excellent value all round. Very happy! | |
2024-09-30 | Robin Stokes | I've used this sniper for longer than I care to remember and, for me, it's an essential part of the eBay bidding process. It's inexpensive, reliable and smooth and I highly recommend it! | |
2024-09-21 | swoosh bang wallop | The sniping service is great in principal but the app version is missing some of the features of the browser-based version. At the moment, there doesn't seem much point in switching to the app. Sept 2024. Tried again but postage is not listed against each item. I always take postage into account when setting my snipe. Back to the browser version. | |
2024-09-12 | AJ M | Since I signed up for a new account about a week or so thus far I have 2 items that I was bidding on. Thank you. Gixen has a new member, and the price for 1 year recurring membership is very, very affordable. | |
2024-09-04 | J | What trash. Takes me 4 tries to log in with the same credentials. Then go to set up a snipe after their college course on how to do it, it says ive used my max of 4 per month so go subscribe.....I've never heard of this garbage app until 5 minutes ago and I'll never remember it 5 minutes from now. | |
2024-08-03 | Peter Sweeney | Gixen makes it easy for me to make late bids so that the price doesn't get driven up by a bidding war. It is very reliable and there have been many improvements to the UI over the years. Essential for ebay bidders. | |
2024-05-26 | Nick James | A great app, decide what you want to spend and leave the auction to run. I have found that leaving it to fate is the better option. Sometimes you might lose out, but do your research and both you and the seller will achieve a fair price and avoid "auction fever" taking hold and sometimes you might get lucky. It's worked for me. The guys at Gixen are great. 😁 |
