Took some getting used to, since their software caught up with the 3 second sneak. I think the hardest win I have to date was for the Crosman model #70 Pellgun. But well worth the effort!I don't think it is a software fix that causes loses when snipeing, it is that with airguns increased popularity there is more bidders and most of them are willing to pay more than a given airgun is worth just to "win" and more are aware of snipeing now too. I am content to loose most auctions just to know I really did win when I buy one. I always use Blue Book as a GUIDE, knowing it is behind what most eBayer's are willing to pay I still usually won't go beyond about 70% Blue Book. I don't feel like a winner if I payed more than I can easily recoup if I ever need to. I think I have payed about 50% Blue Book on average. Good deals on eBay are getting scarcer but that's OK with me since I have 177 airguns currently. I still look frequently, can't help that! If I see one that I have to have I will pay what it is worth to the general market even though I have NO "plans" on selling any.

Good for you Rick!
I signed up my great nephew to hunter`s safety classes next weekend. Big time sink but his dad is not in the picture and he`s worth the effort. Squirrel season opens a week later so the timing is good.
