AuctionMagic

With the emergence of multiple e-commerce platforms, there has been a surge in programs of various types that assist users in trading in the online environment. As one of the largest players, eBay has seen a fair share of such tools and AuctionMagic is one of them.

The standalone application also integrates with several common browsers, including Firefox or Internet Explorer and allows one to create lists of monitored auctions. It can also be employed to issue conditional bidding rules, as well as sniping commands, effectively winning auctions at the lowest possible price.

There are multiple uses for this tool. With it, one can scrape the eBay database for certain auctions and even monitor all sales by a certain user. But the real power of this program is its sniping ability. Since all monitored auctions are displayed in a list, complete with timers and bidding information, one can employ it to purchase items with just a few seconds before bidding ends.

This task can also be automated, so there is no need for one to be at the computer when bids are placed. The program synchronizes the system clock with that of eBay, so users don't risk loses due to time delays (provided a consistent Internet connection is available).

The program comes with a very clean GUI and simple overall setup that permits users of all levels to start monitoring bids with just a few mouse clicks. The only essential configuration one needs to perform before employing this program is defining the eBay account.

To sum up, AuctionMagic is a good tool for anyone who regularly trades items on eBay, especially for those searching for a sniping program.
