That "elsewhere" can also mean mirror server, though it should show "WON BY MIRROR" instead. No reason to worry either way.

I did win it (good point, I should have mentioned!), but was simply curious about why the unusual status message. I can see how on occasion there'd be a disconnect with the response Gixen may get from eBay.

It's not clear from your message did you win it or not?

If you won, that's probably because Gixen failed to get a proper response from eBay when placed a bid so it got confused a little. That won't affect your future sniping too much anyway.

If you lost, then Mario should check why Gixen messed up here.

On an item I won today through Gixen, in the status notification was a descriptor I've not seen before, "ITEM WON FROM ELSEWHERE"

Not sure what this indicates. I do have the mirror service, but doesn't that show a status like "WON BY MIRROR" if the mirror placed the winning bid?

Also, I didn't place a bid manually; (all of my bids go through Gixen, I never use manual bidding anymore.

Item # 220863940449
