Reply to "AS Didnt Place Bids in Time?"

But 30 seconds gives several more people time to bid once or twice each. There has to be a better answer to this issue.

eBay isnt THAT slow even at those times. I am on a crappy cable modem connection (Comcast really stinks) and I can still pull the pages up in five seconds or thereabouts. And I am manually clicking the mouse where you all are electroniclly clicking the mouse - it probably takes me a half a second to click a mouse, it should take a computer a few nanoseconds.

You all indicated you have servers colo'd somewhere. Regardless of where, you are sitting on at least a couple of T1s in somebodys basement and I would hope much more. Your server should be able to beat my cable connection to the punch every time without exception.
