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

The most dependable eBay sniper I've ever used. Very modest pricing for such an impressive service. VERY easy to use, ( either with phone app or via website). Gixen takes the anxiety out of eBay biddi... 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

Flawless and more than earned the subscription cost - a tiny amount and incredible value - back with first win. Set and forget, and I love the fact you can group bids so if you win one it stops bidding. An essential tool if you're buying anything from Ebay auctions.

Gixen is an excellent dependable sniping service

I have been using Gixen for just over two years now without experiencing a single issue. I moved over from a competing service after I was let down once too often. I pay the small cost of the Gixen mirror service as a way of contributing something to the development and support costs of this excellent tool. Gixen is very easy to use and is very dependable. So you should also sign up for Gixen and pay for the mirror service too!

Works perfectly, bargain subscription!!

Works perfectly and subscription is really reasonable for an absolutely bullet-proof, intuitive program. I got tired of losing Ebay items in the last few seconds to snipers, so I joined them several years ago...haven't looked back. Will probably more than pay for an annual subscription on your first item!

Why not give Gixen a try.

I've been using Gixen for some years now and can say that it is without doubt the easiest and most reliable sniping tool out there. You really don't need technical skills to use it. It just works.
It has been so reliable for me that for the last 18 months I've taken the option to use the mirror service too. It's not expensive and worth every penny.

Gixen is the best eBay sniper EVER

Gixen is the best eBay sniper EVER, no if and buts. In the almost 10 yrs. since we're using it (me and my wife) I've got my (very acceptable) yearly fee tens of times back form the won auctions, sometimes for item that were hard to found and a bid war would have ensued with classical bid.

If you use EBAY you have to have Gixen, btw. the free usage is almost as good and it's a very quick way to test it, but be warned, once hooked you'll never be able to use eBay without it :)

Gixen is a very useful tool to help win eBay auctions. It is very reliable and simple to use. I subscribe to the extra mirror service (which is very reasonably priced) and it has always worked well. The owner of the site shows a great deal of interest in keeping it maintained and sends updates through every so often. Highly recommended!

Top stuff.

Excellent bit of kit. I boast a bid success rate of 100%. Used other snipe tools; I was with Goofbay/bid for yonks. The aforementioned were about as reliable as the weather. Excuses, excuses, excuses: 'it was eBay's fault' etc. No such malarkey with Gixen, though. I have paid a trifling amount for another, 'mirror', I think it is. Anyway, whatever the technical niceties might be - they bother me not a jot - Gixen stand head and shoulders above the rest, methinks.

For me Gixen has been a buyers lifesaver, had been using another site for many years then all of a sudden couldn’t log on anymore. I found Gixen and have been using for years now. I will never go back to previous site! As a previous reviewer mentioned, for a few bucks a year it’s a steal! I hope all users of this site subscribe and support such a great service! Thank you Gixen!!

Very reliable sniping.

It's very worthwhile paying a measly few dollars a year for the mirror for added reliability. Has already saved me Thousands $$$. I can't fault them.

Gixen has saved me loads money

Gixen has saved me loads money, Set the amount you are prepared to pay for an item on eBay and it will bid up to the amount you can afford, at very last second. You either win or you are outbid, but you can rest assured you haven't overbid.

Peace of mind, worth every penny.

It works and has saved me money

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 subscription service, which gives even greater reliability. The developer is open and honest, and quick to communicate if there is ever the slightest issue. I've never been affected by any and so only know due their comms.

Many years of faithful, reliable and affordable service

I've been using Gixen for many many years and it's never let me down. Saves the hassle of bidding for sure! I pay (small fee) for the mirror service now, not just because it offers additional surety but because I'm so grateful for the reliable service provided over 10+ years. Also appreciate the helpful and informative emails I receive from time to time. I feel like my bids are in good hands : )
