It did not snipe my auction!! Sun Mar 03, 2013 02:39 AM Quote

I have used this software in the past and it worked very well. I was always incredibly pleased but now after months I used it again. I set my snipe on an auction at least 24 hours in advance and I got a message from ebay on my phone that the auction was ending. I was happy until I noticed it did not place any bid!

There were no bids at all on the auction (200900325302) The starting bid was 15.00, so my winning bid would have been 15.50. I had set up Myibidder to 24.00 as a max for safety so it should have just registered a bid right? What went wrong? I am so disappointed right now and afraid it's going to do this again in the future.

Here is a pic of what it looks like in the software:

Sometimes I also set the snipe in my browser on ebay.com using Myibidder. Can this cause confusion of some sort?

What am I doing wrong?

Danny.

It seems like you did not activate the snipe when you set it (that was at about 1:05pm eBay time).
I see you activated it after auction ended only, but that was too late (that was at about 6:00pm eBay time).

Please always check to make sure the snipe is activated (i.e. you see your snipe in the "My Bid" cell).

Thank you for your reply. I really thought I had activated my snipe using the program but I guess I did not.

Anyway, I have now used the Myibidder-button from the browser to set up another snipe for item 230937219085. It is set for 20 USD. Could you please check if it's set correctly this time? I wouldn't want to miss out on it again.

Also, I noticed that I receive an error when using the windows program for Myibidder. The error occurs when I exit the program and have set up my snipe, therefore I used the button in the browser this time as shown in the picture. Could this have caused the error the first time?

Thank you for your time Sashka!

Danny

I checked your snipe and it looks good now, so you are set on it.

Regarding the error message in the Windows application: that will be fixed in the new version. It does not affect sniping, so you can ignore it for now.
