No, not proxy bidding. I snipe every auction I want, without any program.
All it takes is a cable connection.
30 seconds before the auction ends, place your highest bid. Not the incremental bid, but the highest you'll pay. Make sure it's not a round dollar amount or cents amount. Once your bid is in, keep refreshing to make sure no one else takes it.

If you're not used to doing that, try it at one minute instead - long enough to put in another bid but too soon for the person to get their outbid notice and come fix things.

I do it in the last ten seconds.
