[quote="tio200"]311750184518 EBAY had this listed as an auction sale with a very low start price, so I used GIXEN to place a snipe, but now the listing has been changed to a BUY IT NOW price at 20 times the original start price. yet GIXEN still has my bid at the low start price. When the sale date is over won't my bid be ignored or dropped, yet GIXEN still as my bid as valid? This has happened to me before, I am thinking of entering a manual bid on very low priced items to keep the auction from being changed as ebay doesn't allow a bid placed to be ignored even if the listing is changed.. or do they? Also it is best not to visit a site more than once because the listings seem to raise their prices if they see traffic and interest, one guy raises his starting price from from$150 to $350![/quote]
