I see so many complaints on this formum that I would just like to say that I'm happy. I haven't won every auction, but it has not been AS fault. There have been winning proxy bids, outsniped, etc., but I have certainly won some that I wouldn't have otherwise.

I think this is a good service. Many of the auctions that I bid on (the same seller) end within minutes (and sometimes seconds) of each other. Why do they do that?

Thanks for the positive input... Most don't find the forum till they have a problem and are looking for the answer under the help tab. From there it's a straight shot to the forum. That's the real reason you see so many complaints. Most are very happy, and never have a problem.

Many sellers enter their auction data off line. When they get everything entered for all auctions they transmit everything to eBay all at once, so the auction ending times are very close together. Actually, many auctions from the same seller can end each second.
