{wiki=Auction_sniping}
Auction sniping refers to the practice of placing a winning bid on an item at the last possible moment in an online auction. This strategy aims to prevent other bidders from responding with counter-bids, increasing the chances of winning the auction at a lower price. Typically associated with platforms like eBay, sniping is often executed using automated tools or software, which can place bids just seconds or milliseconds before the auction ends.
