Reply to "ARGH!!!! DID NOT PLACE BID!!!"

That's a good read. Thanks for the referral. The statement regarding the "1 in 20" sure rings true when it happens to a person. I just wish I learned it in another way and sooner than now. I just figured it was a "snipe and forget" situaition when I used this service. The contents of that thread should be incorporated into the FAQ. I cannot find anything about auto-lead times or changing the timelimit to 30 seconds during peak times in the FAQ. A few seconds, but not 30.

This should be proactivly stated somewhere more promently than it is. I would still use the service, but I would know in advance that this is a possibility and and what I could do to avoid it.

Then again ... I may still not have noticed it ... I don't know. I guess I am just frustrated with eBay sometimes. Today is one of those days.

Thanks again!
