Price updates on Gixen servers are scheduled not real time, the amount of resource required to update all of them in real time would be prohibitive.

The updates are usually more frequent towards the end of the auction but I still wouldn't expect them to recur less than every few hours.

If price updates are likely to affect the amount of your snipes, and you have a windows based device I would recommend using the Gixen Desktop manager since the main function of that is to use your own resources to retrieve the prices direct from Ebay, so this can be as often as you like.

Alternatively, my preferred approach is to research items to the point where I am happy that whatever others bid before the end of the auction I'm happy that if they want to bid more than my bid they are paying too much for the item.
