autosnipe: Sorry, this item is already present.

Hi Mario,

once in a while I try to add an item a second time and - naturally - am told "Sorry, this item is already present.". I get the message.

Anyhow, it would be great to ge more than just that plain message:

I would love to have the current bid entry displayed and compared to the bid entry I just tried to enter. This would alert me ifI came to a different evauation last time around.

A bonus would be to be able to edit the entry on the spot.

Thanks,
moishe

Hi Mario,

could you please put this on the request list regarding your "eBay Connect 2020" email?

Thanks,

Moishe, how much time does this save you? I could include the info in the error message, that's not too difficult to do.

Now and then, I am looking for a particular item (or several) over an extended period of time. I don't need it right away and want to get a good deal. So I have an ebay search running and repeatedly I go through the search results and add whichever offers fit. These may be several tens of offers at a time.

The price I am willing to pay usually depends on a combination of the item's condition, the shipping costs and the risk level I associate with the seller's history, the payment options (paypal guarantee or similar) and the shipping options (tracking/insurance). The results may vary from day to day and over the course of time.

If I take the time to evaluate an Item and place a snipe and happen to already have evaluated the same offer earlier on, I want to be able to immediately compare my bids and decide which one to go with. As it is right now, I need to copy the item number, go to my gixen listings, paste/find the item/bid, compare, press edid, scroll, do the edit and save. This is all very tedious and completely breaks the flow of evaluating a large number of offers in a row.
