[quote="bonsaialr"][quote="bonsaialr"]I reset the proxy on my computer for Gixen. I logged out of Ebay and relogged into Ebay and they required me to make the confirmation phone call. I did that and I think all will be Ok to make snipes. I hope so anyway.[/quote] The reset worked fine and no I did not win the item I just snipe bid on. It had a good bit of run past bidding. But the main thing is the reset worked.[/quote]

I think it depends how much you have been doing on different IP addresses, which include Gixens. <br /> <br />Unfortunately, Ebay does not seem to hold centrally any list of where you are verified... or if they have attempted to do so, they keep losing it. <br /> <br />Anyway, Mario seems to have successfully resolved the issues with the Gixen Main servers, for the present, so snipes should currently execute as you expect. <br /> <br />N.B. The Mirror was not involved in the issues yesterday and continued to operate flawlessly throughout....
