[quote="Cupid"]You should be able to see on the Mirror tab that the snipes that are not grouped are listed there as well. Also at the bottom of the page it should have note of when you subscription is good until. For each individual snipe you can set the timing using the offset drop down menu. To change the default offset you can select a different one from the Settings page. That page also gives access to all the other features that you can tailor to your liking.[/quote]

Post subject: Using Mirror
The only difference you will see is two boxes should appear on the right end of the lines where you enter your bid; one labelled "Offset". In that box you select the number of seconds left in the auction at which time you want the Gixen main server to enter your bid. In the "Mirror" box you select the time left at which you want the Gixen Mirror server to send your bid -- thereby providing a completely separate server and route into the EBay server to help avoid system failures on the part of any one component. Only the times to trigger these events are different; the amounts will be the same. Normally both bids get sent and received by EBay; because they both have the same bidder ID (yours) you are not competing against yourself and you can in no way increase the amount you pay if you win the auction. If you leave both times the same, you still get the (major) benefit of the redundant origin and routing of the two bids. Personally, I set one ahead of the other to 'stake the ground;' if my bid is the first one of several at the same level I will win for being first; the last second bid is just there for the redundancy. There is no way that Gixen will raise the bid, no matter what happens in those last few seconds; it ALWAYS transmits the amount you told it to bid. It is only EBAY's system that does any sorting or reconsidering of bid amounts to determine the winner.

Post subject: Subscribed to mirror. Now what?
I just paid my six bucks for the mirror annual fee, but I don't see that anything has changed when I log in. Should it have? How do I change the snipe time?
