COULD NOT BID: PHONE OR TEXT VERIFICATION REQUESTED BY EBAY

[kingstontickets]

EBAY Listings 171538410058 and 251714458246

I followed instructions to use auto-proxy config. Tried multiple listings placing manual bid but NEVER got the captcha, verification screen.

I even tried seamonkey and IE and doing autoporox config in Internet control panal. But still no dice...

I even cleared the cookies as instructed.

Could my account be flagged. I only started to try to use Gixen because I got the same message on auctionsniper... please don't judge

Thanks

It is believed that certain activities increase the risk that your account will be targeted by Ebay.. for instance scheduling snipes for many auctions that all result in bids during the same second.

However, if after configuring the proxy you have no issues actually placing bids (not just logging in to Ebay) then I think it is worthwhile trying to schedule another snipe on Gixen.

The restrictions Ebay put in place against specific accounts are often quite short term, so it may be that they have been deactivated in your case when placing bids via the Gixen IP address.

I also recommend that you keep using the proxy for several days. Only your eBay and Gixen traffic will be routed through it, nothing else.

Go Figure... I'm back in biz... Must have been a 24 block.

BTW, I noticed with the mirroring that each side tries to place a bid, thus there are always 2 bids attempted at the same time..... This doesn't cause ebay to flag or see weird activity?

No, that hasn't happened so far, main and mirror work fine at the same time.
