I want to know what would happen if two or three people have the same snipe-at-the-last-second-with-a-bid type programs!
Honestly at that point, especially if they're using the same sniping program, it comes down to the internet connection. Who can basically ping the ebay server fastest probably wins.
Within the past year Amazon.com had a promotion where they sold 1000 Xbox360s for $100 off. The sale started at high noon. I had the product page up and ready. At 11:59:55 I hit 'reload' and by the time my page reloaded, it was sold out.
