Please always include the eBay link where you have this issue so I could check.

Hi,
Since the new update to Ebay the snipe link is not showing on the pages. I have also noticed in the webpage that when you reload it doesn't update the price. Possibly a factor of Ebay changing layout?

Hope this helps solve this issue.

It looks good on my end, so it seems like eBay enabled a new layout for your account only.
I'm getting a few samples to make an update for the add-on.

If you Firefox, you can use Tools - Snipe it option from the menu or right-click on the page to add the item meanwhile.

The current price update works fine, btw.

I still see the original layout on UK as well, so I think only a few users have it.
eBay is usually rolling out changes to a small group of users first to get some feedback, then they may change more things based on that feedback.

It does not look like you refreshed the item's information.
You have to click "Refresh" button on the Snipe page to get it updated.

Not sure why you disagree.
Did you have a chance to check the link I mentioned before? You did not agree on the information posted?
Did you try to click "Refresh" button which is located under item's information on the Snipe page? You did not agree about "Refresh" button?
Please clarify.

Same with me. Using firefox. The page that shows all my current snipes does not update. If you click the item link and go to ebay, the current bid is different to what is shown on myibber page. Refreshing the`myibidder page only updates the time left on the auction but not current bid level.

Refreshing the page does not update the current bid, you have to click "Refresh" button on the snipe screen. The button is located under the item's information box.
Please check the link I mentioned above.

By refresh button on snipe page do you mean the update stages button because if so that doesn't work. AH! I have just got it. You need to click the snipe button on the right hand side of the screen and then press refresh in new screen. What a convluted way of doing things. It would be a good idea if there was a refresh option under setting so we could refresh it at a certain time interval. People probably use this tool to help save time but this negates that help to a certain effect. I do still like the app though.

There is no point to constantly refresh items. Myibidder is not a monitoring tool, it's a sniper.
Most people don't refresh and don't use current bid information anyway.

Refreshing the current bid may even make things worse -- you have a higher chance to be emotionally involved into bidding wars (you may want to increase your snipe over your absolute maximum when you see the current bid increases).

What exactly is not working? The "refresh" button?

As mentioned above, eBay is rolling out new changes.
It's still not completed yet. So we have to wait for them to complete before making an update.
