I have been looking at this service and I cannot figure out the business model. It would seem that myibay is providing a free service with no method to profit from it. What is in this for myibay? I assume this not a charity.
1. Selling a Windows based software (works as an interface for myibay service with some extra features to make auction management more easy).

Please note that both of them are optional and not required for general usage.
The service itself is free. Some simple add-ons (like Firefox add-on, Opera button etc) are free as well.
You always get an unlimited number of snipes no matter how you support it (supporting by sending "thank you" or posting a short review somewhere are good ways too).
