After 2 years I can wholeheartedly say that I am absolutely delighted with Gixen, and can highly recommend it. Very reliable and professionally run. I feel the mirror bid option is worth having, and I will continue to renew this as long as I am bidding to win ;)
I've been using Gixen for ten years, at first free, now paid. Relayable, cheap, safe and easy. And I am eternally grateful for the hundreds of products that I have won cheaply through it.
I have used Gixen for years now and it never fails. I would recommend whole heartedly and don't use any other bidding program, Gixen is the best *****
I have used Gixen to purchase Ebay auction items for more than 5 years. It is comforting to know that my bids will always be considered whether I am there watching them as they occur, out to dinner with friends or sleeping during those midnight auctions. I don't understand how Mario provides this valuable service for so little money.
I read a number of articles about Gixen and a few competitors before trying out a bidding service. I am beyond excited I went with Gixen. I pay to have a subscription, which is an extremely reasonable price given what you gain. Gixen is dependent, has saved me money (more than paid for itself) and I've won my actions. Highly recommend this company!
I am not paid or sponsored or receiving anything for this review. I got an email from Gixen asking me to review them. Normally I wouldnt bother but I really like Gixen's service. I've been using Gixen for many many years. They have been nothing but fantastic. I paste in my eBay auction number and most of the time I win the item as long as I had my max bid set high enough. The fact that Gixen only charges a few bucks a year is pretty sweet. I'd probably pay more. I've won quite a few auctions that I didn't expect to win and I fully know Gixen is why I won.
Being using it for years... ITS GREAT, they deserve the best rating, didnt bother to use any other, as their interface is simple and easy to use, neat and clean. Thanks guys!
I have been a customer for over 10 years. I have never had a problem. I usually only snipe 1 or 2 auctions per week, but that is still around 1,000 snipes! NEVER had a problem!
I've been an eBay buyer and seller for many years. After trying various "sniping" programs I found none of them really got the job done. I've been with Gixen for the past 4-5 years and LOVE it! Its always worked wonderfully, the price is very reasonable, and its never caused any problems on any computers.
Gixen is a surefire way of winning eBay auctions at or below the maximum price you wish to pay.
The service is free but has a small subscription option that gives the user a second backup site to launch their bid. It is highly reliable and accurate, I cannot rate it highly enough
I have a mirror subscription for only $6 per year. I have been using the service for years, and never had a problem with it.
I have used Gixen for many years and have probably won over a couple thousand ebay auctions using Gixen. It has consistently worked really well for me, and I extremely certain I have saved a lot of money using it. I never do anything on Ebay these days without using it. I have never had any problems I can recall, and as someone using it for probably 6-10 auctions every single week for many years I am pretty sure i would have encountered problems if they were common. Plus I am not exactly forgiving or a pushover or remotely nice to any companies that give me problems, and I always made a point to crucify companies that do me wrong, Up to and including giving negative permanent testimony to the state senate on one company that appears on the state senate website anytime anybody googles me plus using the power of my personal website with it's following of 14 million like a giant sledgehammer on other companies. To be fair you have to call out the good ones too. Gixen has always done well by me, and for me I view them as an essential cost saving tool..
I have been a happy Gixen user for many years. It has a simple user interface that you can simply set and forget. Gixen does the rest. The owner of the site communicates directly with users, and is extremely helpful. You don't get that anywhere else online. A "must have" for online bidders. A+++
Sniping lets me decide my maximum price. If the item sells below my maximum then I win it. If the item sells for more than my maximum then that's OK too. End of my ebay stress.
Some people have written that they resent paying gixen.com $7.00 USD for a year's service. In Europe that is the cost of 1½ Big Macs. I think that is a very fair price for a service that works. It has ALWAYS worked for me and I have over 1500 evaluations.
Thanks to you Gixen.
I have bee using gixen for many years now. I think I started around 2013, maybe even earlier. I personally absolutely dislike flashy or over engineered products. I require a service that imports my watchlist from eBay and/or allows manual adding of items. The feature I rely on the most is grouping. My mode of operation is simple: I know what type of item I want and what I am willing to pay at the most. With that in mind I scour eBay and add a whole bunch of auctions that fit the bill and group them together in gixen. Now once I win one of this auctions the other grouped auctions get "cancelled", meaning gixen never bids on them. That method is super simple and has never failed me. There is a free mode but I actually pay for this service in order to support the developer as he seems not be backed by a big company. He is the programmer next door. That is rare and I like it.
Top shelf sniping service. In several years I have never missed a snipe.The mirror service makes it foolproof at a very reasonable price of about 50 cents a month. Join now!
I'm just a regular Joe. I donate a measly 6.00 a year due to my low low income but if I could donate 60.00 I Would!
Gixen is GREAT I have won 99% of the items I've bid on using it!
I used a competitive product for a few years, switched to Given when that. Site changed to a monthly fee. Given works, the fee is minimal the backup server. Adds reliability. Save. 100 's on your closing eBay. Auctions. Given is better. In my opinion. Justjunkjim
I've tried various sniping sites and this one is the best. Highly recommended. Saves me from watching the clock and often missing it. Attached are a couple of photos showing eBay auctions I have won with Gixen. Just go for it!
The Gixen auction program is an awesome product. I regularly use it to get good deals on auction items. I particularly like the grouping function where I can place multiple auction items from different sellers in a group and Gixen will bid until I get one of those items. It then stops bidding on the others. This allows me to set up a snipe for several things in an overnight setting but stops bidding once I win one of them.
I have used the Gixen software for years and win many of my auctions with substantial savings the typical bidding method.
Answer: TOTALLY LEGIT! Been a paid up user for over a decade and never had a single problem.
Answer: It is obvious the reviewer had all the problems that he incorrectly blames on Gixen because he has visited other websites that have put malware/spyware/keyloggers/viruses on his computer. He won't admit that his problems are his own fault so falsely blames GIXEN for his own incompetence.
Answer: I have not needed to reach Customer Service. Their online help is pretty good. Just read.
Answer: It just works. Simple user interface. You can just "set it and forget it". Maybe the best online tool I have ever encountered.
Answer: Nothing at all. Gixen main service is free up to 4 winning snipes a month. Reliability for the free service is 99.5%. If you want higher reliability you can subscribe to Gixen Mirror. In that case your bid is sent twice, from two servers in different regions to minimize chance of failure. Gixen Mirror is inexpensive, around $6 / year, and there are different subscription types that can be seen on the settings page.
