I used Gixen for the first time this week for an ebay auction I really wanted to win. Naturally, I was worried that it might not work and cost me the auction, but just the opposite. The bid came right... See more

Worthless most of the time. Pointless unless you just want to pay a lot for an auction anyway, as it never actually beats out other 'max' bidders. So ultimately, you're better off planning to pay a lo... See more

I can't fault Given for last second bidding (snipping) on eBay. It's saved me money over the years. The free offering is perfectly good, but I'm happy to support this service my paying for the mirror... See more

The best tool for Ebay auctions

I have been using Gixen for many years now. It works flawlessly and helps me win my auctions in a rational manner. The best tool for Ebay auctions. Totally satisfied!

Set and Forget

I've subscribed to Gixen services for several years now and have always had positive experiences. Gixen always bids exactly when I plan it and has never failed to submit a bid. It's simply a set-and-forget entry and has definitely increased my wins on bids. Perfect and completely trustworthy!

Gixen is an absolute must for reliable eBay sniping !

Have used Gixen's subscribed mirror service sniping software almost every day for very many years !! I honestly cannot remember it ever letting me down, and find it an absolute MUST for helping win most of the many bids it places on eBay for me !

I also highly recommend subscribing to the mirror service which provides extra features including Ad. removal and backup sniping via an extra server !

Great service run by a great guy called Mario.

Excellent service that I have been using now for a number of years. You can try it out as a free service or pay a little bit and get some extra features like more control over the number of seconds before the end of auction that Gixen places the bid - and of course the Mirror service just in case there is some network or similar delay from the main server. It's never failed for me - the only reason I have not won is I have been very simply outbid or someone else placed a bid earlier just below my snipe amount and the ebay bid increment meant that my snipe bid was not acceptable - the same would have happened if I had been sitting at the keyboard and placed the same bid myself.

Very nice simple interface with reports on how your snipes have gone. I find it very useful that I can set up a snipe days in advance and still change my bid or cancel right up to the last minute.

Gixen seems to keep up well with the internal changes at Ebay regarding authentication and as I said ~ never let me down. Also if you sign up to the emails you get notified of upcoming changes etc.

Go go Gixen.

Recommended - Gixen free Ebay sniper.
Have been using Gixen now for several years and Sniping enables me to bid at the last minute without even without even being logged on. I subscribe to the mirror service to support the developers. The fee is peanuts compared the savings I have made. I happily recommend this sniper.

Recommended - Gixen free Ebay sniper.

Have been using Gixen now for several years since Goofbid started charging. Sniping enables me to bid at the last minute without being tempted to increase my maximum bid and without even being logged on. I've been so impressed I now subscribe to the mirror service to support the developers. I happily recommend this sniper.

Excellent Service!

I've been using Gixen for years and it's by far the best. After a time using it for free I signed up for the paid version not only to support Mario but also to be able to use the mirror. It has never let me down.

Gixen is worth paying for.

If you use eBay more than three or four times a month for purchases, as I do, then it is not expensive to let Gixen handle the bids up to the time of the final sale. Using a snipe service saves getting emotionally involved with "winning" an auction. The bidders that must "win" will pay more out in the end.
Gixen is worth paying for.

The eBay snipping site for me!

I've dipped in and out of eBay snipping tools and can happily say that Gixen is the one for me. It just works - so much so that I've happily spend the extra couple of pounds for the premium mirror service

Good value and very reliable

I started using Gixen a couple of years ago after my previous sniper tool changed to an expiring credit system which made it very expensive for occasional usage. Gixen is good value and has been very reliable

GIXEN and eBay Auctions

When I started to take part in eBay Auctions I would have get access to a computer when auctions were ending and I was away from home. This was often difficult or impossible and I would either be outbid or not be able to bid on an item. Since I found out about Gixen’s Sevice, I have been able to set my bidding parameters and not get sucked into bidding wars with those with more money. It also enabled me to submit bids at my convenience for those auctions which ended at odd or inconvenient times. Gixen has saved me a lot of money, removed much of the stress of the bidding process, and has enabled me to win many of the auctions I have participated in on eBay. The unfortunate thing about eBay, in 2020, is that many of the sellers no longer auction items, but sell them at “buy it now” pricing which in most cases is just retail pricing.
I highly recommend Gixen as the BEST aid a bidder can have to be successful for winning auctions on eBay. Do not hesitate to pay the modest fee to support Gixen!! You won’t be sorry.

The best eBay sniper

The best eBay sniper. I've used three different snipers, and Given is the best by far - so reliable and I've never had a problem, never missed a bid. It's incredibly cheap and such good value. If you bid on even a couple of items a year it's worth it. The developer is terrific, easy to reach and very friendly and helpful. Highly recommended.

Highly recommended

Highly recommended. Rates high on my list of apps I use regularly. Have used Gixen for several years and it provides outstanding value in terms of time saved and, importantly, success in winning bids. Easy to use, never lets me down. It is one service I would not want to be without.
