FREE SNIPE FRIDAY!

As a thank you to our great customers, we are happy to announce that all snipes *entered on our site from 12:01am PDT to 11:59pm PDT Friday, May 26th will be free!

* It does not matter when the auction ends, but the snipe must be entered on Friday.

Ok, so I'm in the UK - what on earth does PDT mean? Why can these banners not have the corrected times for the time zone I'm in - after all, I am viewing it on http://UK.auctionsniper.com ????

I agree - I'm on EDT (Eastern Daylight time) and have to continually "do the math."

PDT is Pacific Daylight Time - the site is run from the West Coast of the U.S. I believe the UK is 6(?) hours ahead of us on the East Coast here, so you're 9 hours ahead of the Auction Sniper main site. So, that means (I think!) your free snipes should start at 3:00 p.m. on your Thursday (May 25th) and will end at 2:59 p.m. on your Friday (May 26th).

edited to add - that's assuming you're on Daylight Savings Time

Thanks - I wonder how many non-USA customers AS has - quite a few I imagine - yet they do things like this from time to time. I put in a support 'call' - it's been passed to the developers!

The promotion lasted 24 hours. It would be too difficult, if not impossible to have a rolling promotion that was valid on Friday from 12:01am - 11:59pm for all time zones.
