I snipe quite often, and the service I use has only reported it happening on one of my snipes. Say John ups the bid to 11, then Jane’s proxy will automatically up it to 11.5. It’ll bid the next least amount that’ll allow Jane to outbid the winning bid without surpassing her maximum bid. If it happens on a sniped bid, the snipe won't go through. So eBay’s proxy will automatically bid for Jane.
