5/5Wow really free!
Update: this app and dev are the GOAT. PERIOD. Thanks! Why would anyone use any other service than bidnapper? All of The others make you keep the app open so it can bid from your device. This is not the deal here. Bidnapper is is an eBay service, authorized on your account to bid by proxy for you from their servers. I was a regular customer for a while 10 years ago and it Blows me away it’s free now. Free as in free. I’ve scored several things on my want list already for almost embarrassing low prices. Now I Get to be the guy from completed/sold items that you’re like “wow guy for a deal.” So yeah thanks five stars A+++ deal with this (app) seller.

5/5The Original, Still The Best!!!
I love BIDNAPPER because it was the first effective way to snipe auctions, and it’s still the simplest, no-frills way to win online auctions - in short, it’s the BEST!! No more sitting by the computer counting down the minutes and seconds, hoping to get your bid entered at just the right moment, only to have someone else beat you to the punch or fat-fingering the keys on the keyboard and losing out because of your own ineptitude! Yes, there are other options, but trust me, BIDNAPPER is the OG in the world of sniping!!!

5/5Used the website, now the app. Winning!
I’ve used this website for many years and now just found out they had an app. I’ve won many times at the last few seconds with them - this really works. Just make sure your bid you set in the app is higher than the bid you need to win the item and it’s all yours. I call it sniping. I’ve never been out-sniped by someone else when using this service. It’s a great way to SAVE MONEY. Seriously.

5/5Great great app
Would have to disagree with all those trashing this app/service because they didn’t win! First of all place a snipe or whatever at your MAX amount if you want to win or have a chance at winning a bid!!! I bid for end price of auction at 100 dollars over the present bid price with 5 minutes to go! If you aren’t prepared to bid a good amount higher just BEFORE close of auction....that is on YOU....not the app! Thanks!

1/5Messes up bids/cancelling auctions. Bait/Switch Subscription
Thanks to them I’m out $25. I changed my mind on an auction, went back into the program to cancel the snipe before the listing was over, and it showed me none pending, and nothing in my watch list to add or cancel. I assumed I cancelled already, but the program malfunctioned and now I’m out real cash. Also, be careful if you decide to pay there less than $10 program, they switch the price at the last second if you don’t pay attention. iBidder is a Much better program, even if it is more expensive! ———— To add about response, the auction was NOT already over. I checked the listing before it ended to make sure it was cancelled, and there was nothing in my snipe area, nor my watch list, so I trusted it was fine. But, I found out AFTER the auction ended that it sniped anyway. Your program is inconsistent and inefficient. And about the bait and switch, PayPal sided with me, so I pretty much proved my side once already.
