I use Gixen a lot and am very successful using the same parameters I always have. Today is different. Two auctions did not recognize my max bid, of which I would have won. The latest auction in Gixen shows that I "won", but Ebay shows me being out bid by one. What do you attribute the cause of today's problems? |

Would you be prepared to tell us the auction number?
When you look at the bids does the one that won have a later time than yours? ... If that is the case the status should have been 'OUTSNIPED' here on Gixen, however the detection of that event is a bit more difficult for Gixen to detect. _________________ Mark |

Did not save the two that I set up Gixen, but did not show up on the Ebay bid list, but the auction numbers were: 280550887151 & 280550887168
Here are a couple of inaccurate notifications:
1. Gixen said I won this, but it sold for $105.27:
250684986364 AS-IS 6 LOT iPod Nano 5th Gen 8 gb Black BROKEN REPAIR (by sold4parts)
Comment:
ENDED 102.77 71.00 USD WON
2. Gixen said I won this, but it sold for $22.27
260653292796 AS-IS Apple iPod Nano BLUE 5th Gen 8gb BROKEN REPAIR (by sold4parts)
Comment:
ENDED 21.77 12.48 USD WON |

Mario will need to look at the logs for the first two.
The others were outbid after Gixen submitted the bid and you were the high bidder for a couple of seconds, so the eventual status should have been 'OUTSNIPED', as I guessed, however that processing has to be done after the auction has ended and can sometimes fail... it doesn't affect the actual sniping though, its just an innacurate report after the event. _________________ Mark

The first two: Your bid was already too low at the auction end, and could not be submitted. eBay would not accept it.
As for the rest - "OUTSNIPED" status not detected, obviously I need to fix this. Working on it. |
