I signed in to myibidder. from the ebay myibid icon. I did a snipe of $37.99 max bid ending in 1 second on this ebay item # 151173531078. I put my snipe bid in several hours before the auction ended.
At the time there was a present bid of $10.00 by one buyer.
Thinking I probably won the bid. I look at ebay and shows the item sold for $10.00. to the other bidder.
Myibidder list item # 151173531078 the below notation:
"My Status: You can't bid on your own items with another account"
The email from myibidder to me states:
"The following bid attempt was placed per your request:
Item #151173531078: Victorian Style Doll Shoes/boots Baby Blue Leather With Pearl "button" Sides.
Final price: 10.00
Snipe: 37.99
Status from eBay:
You can't bid on your own items with another account."
I only have one ebay account and one myibidder account. I don't understand why the strange can't bid on your own items with another account? I have not ever sold anything on ebay.
Could you please help me so this does not happen again?

Code: Select All
It looks like you're bidding on an item from an account that's associated with the seller of the item. This means your account and the seller's account share some similar information like an address or credit card number. You're not allowed to bid on your own items with another account or bid on items being sold by someone you know. If you're the seller or know the seller, please don't place the bid because that would violate our shill bidding policy.
If you aren't using an account that is associated with the seller of the item, you're welcome to place your bid.
