The FAQ states snipes will happen about 5 seconds before the auction ends. This was always my previous experience with Gixen as well. This time my bid was placed inexplicably a full 15 minutes before the auction ended... after several counter bids while I was at work, I lost the item.
Very disappointed.
What went wrong this time around with Gixen?? Giving another party a full fifteen minutes to respond to your bid obviously defeats the point of sniping an item. |

Interesting, is it your claim that Gixen placed both the bids at 21 Aug 2017 at 2:25:03AM BST of US $18.00 and at 21 Aug 2017 at 2:25:16AM BST of US $20.00 ?
There is only one other bid to those, 6 seconds before the auction ended, isn't there ?
Where are you seeing | Quote: | | several counter bids |
?
What status has Gixen given the snipe now that the auction has finished

Yes, please tell us more. All we can see are three bids from two bidders, which is not consistent with your description.
