Powersnipe

If you’re a true eBay addict, you’ll be looking for a service that offers unlimited snipes for a set fee. PowerSnipe has the easiest interface between browsing an auction in the software’s window to creating a snipe. This stops any need to cut and paste information.

Despite being a software option, PowerSnipe sends bids from its own servers so your PC doesn’t have to be switched on when your snipe is due. It also offers most standard features, including Bid Groups to give you the best chance of winning an item at your chosen price. Throw in the fact that there’s a version for Mac or PC and a useful daily search feature that emails you the results (though you can also do this in eBay itself) and this is one of the most professional pieces of sniping software available.
