Snipping can be done in one of two ways. The first way is the safest, but not necessarily the easiest. Simply keep up with the item you are bidding on. Make a note of the date and time that the auction will end, and make sure that you are in front of your computer and logged into the auction well before that specific time. The objective is to either bid higher than the highest bid during the last few seconds, which are what snipers do, or to simply make sure that you are not outbid by a sniper.
Remember that sniping is against the rules, so you should log in about 30 or 40 five minutes before the bidding ends, and get your bid up until it is the highest bid. At that point, all you need to do is to keep an eye out to make sure that nobody else raises the bid. If you have been logged in for a while, this cannot be considered sniping.
Using this method, you must be aware of automatic bidders, and it is very hard to bid against people who use bidding software.
That software has been designed for snipping, and your chances of outbidding the software manually are very slim, which leads us to the second method of snipping, Snipping services.
Snipping services are very easy to find online, and they are relatively inexpensive. You can also purchase your own snipping software and become a sniper. Purchasing your own software is usually the best way to go if you bid on a lot of items. Set up the software, tell it which auction to watch and what the highest price you are willing to bid, and let it do the work, but just remember that it is against the rules. You will be running the risk of getting banned from eBay, although eBay seldom enforces this rule. Outbidding somebody is one thing, but sniping is something altogether different.
