:iagree: A sniper program takes the fun out of it. I like sitting there with my stopwatch (yeah, I use a stopwatch) waiting for that five second mark to come up. Then BAM! It's like watching the lights run down the christmas tree, seeing green, and then dropping the hammer!:D

I've been clooecting parts for my 406ci for a year now, most of them I have got off ebay and figure I've save about 40% so far, I love it.

BTW you don't need a sniping program, just reliable cable modem and you slide in :lol:

Yeah it's addictive but you can get some great prices too. I just picked up my new 4 bolt block, High nickel content casting, all machine work done, new bearings/plugs, decked, came with new Speed Pro domed pistons and rings. Paid $350 for it all.

Actually for me there's a little suspense in using the sniper. I have to use it because I don't want to sit up at night watching the auctions...then the enxt morning it's either a positive or a totally depressing email (don't you jstu hate it when someone overbids by $1)
