Andrew,

If you are in the UK, it's beneficial to have the server with larger offset (=the one that sends the bids first) set to UK due to different US/UK insurance policies. Dispute resolution is different on ebay.com and ebay.co.uk, and coverages may be different. This matters only if something goes very wrong with the purchase.

It is, however, beneficial to have the server with smaller offset (e.g. mirror) set to US, because ebay rarely, if ever, changes UI at the same time on ebay.com and international sites. So it's safer in case that UI gets changed, and subsequently, sniping broken.

Hi. Thanks for a great service. I've used other snipers before but yours is the best ever. I've lost count of my last second wins.
I bid mostly on ebayco.uk so my config is default 6 secs on UK site for primary and mirror. Is there any advantage in pointing primary and mirror to UK and US sites respectively and having different offsets for the two sites.
Otherwise I'll just stick with the ever-reliable defaults.
Best regards from Cambridge UK
