I pressed "x" on one of my snipes by accident. It deleted it and now I can't find it. Will "x"ing out also cancel that snipe?

Hello David,
Thank you for your question about deleting a snipe. Yes, deleting the snipe removes it entirely from our system forever, with no record of it whatsoever.
However, once bidding is closed for that item, the snipe can no longer be deleted because we keep a lifetime archive for you (unless you ask us to delete it).
Thank you for taking the time to write in. Please let us know if you have any other questions. We are happy to help.
