That is very odd... I can't see any reason for it... Mario is probably the only one that can shed any light on this.

The original end time of this auction was 8/7/11 06:23:14 PM PDT.

So seller must have ended this auction early.

Interesting, eBay are not indicating to me that the listing was ended early or modified ... maybe they have stopped letting us know.

Mark, I no longer rely on that, sometimes they display the message, sometimes not. This is why I save the original end time.

AFAIK, eBay shows the message when there were bidders. If nobody bid, eBay may not even show the message about earlier auction ending.

Mario, please check this:

200636281300 Tonium PACEMAKER 60GB! Portable DJ system! Great price! (by sekatorone)

my username is crisleeloo

gixen status: AUCTION ENDED EARLY OR SNIPE LATE

Probably the guy ended the item early but there's no indication of that on ebay and it's strange because it was close to the end.

Thanks

This auction was not ended early by the seller.

I can see two other snipes with the same status at the same time, so it was either an issue with the main server connectivity, or ebay. I can't tell which, since none of these snipes were copied to the mirror.

I hope you can find a similar item again.
