Just downloaded the current GDM version (v.2.0.2) but I get the same error 281:

-- after a while GDM starts to "refresh" the prices and here is where I get the error. Message at the bottom shows quickly two msgs
* "Refreshing price for [eBay item#]" and then
* "error 281 for [eBay item#]".
-- At that time the High Bid amount for this item is replaced by 'N/A";
-- Only if I click on "Refresh Gixen Status" I can get back the current High Bids;

Any suggestions? (the web version doesn't have this problem and correctly reflects the latest High Bid)

TIA,

Looks like the new GDM v.2.1.0 addressed the error 281 and the High Bid values are not replaced by 'N/A'.

Thank you for the fix, Mario! :!:

Clear your browser cache - that must be the reason you are getting the old version again.

Hi, would you be able to supply a new link for the 1.2.5 GDM version please? I had the same issue as your other users with prices not displaying (got n/a instead) - it stopped working yesterday and you wrote that you released a fix - when I try to log into GDM now it tells me to download the latest version. I deleted all my old files and have a separate folder for this, but when I click the original download link the 'modify dates' on the files don't have any very recent dates in them and when I download them and extract, I still get the same message asking me to download 1.2.5. Hope you can help - only downloaded GDM for the first time on 17 August and it worked great then, I was really impressed/pleased with it, so now I am desperate to have it back! Thanks a lot.

Got it, had to delete all the old files and extract out the new files. Looks like it works great. Thanks for fixing that Mario!!! Great product.

Are you looking at the "About" box? Weird, it should say 1.2.5.

Just tried the version that I just downloaded. It looks like it has a new compile date and the file size has changed but the version said 1.2.4 and I get an outdated version popup.

Go ahead and re-download GDM, the latest version is 1.2.5, it contains a fix. Same download link.

eBay made some changes (redirection) that then required a fix in GDM.
