This is the first time I've heard of auctionstealer, but I LOVE esnipe. My problem isn't so much that I'm worried about not being around for the end of the auction, but that I get completely caught up IN the auction and bid way too high if I'm in a "bidding battle." So I go to esnipe, plug in my max bid and forget about it. Then it's a nice surprise when I win and I'm not worried about how much money I spent if I don't win.
