Reply to "Message from AS was "Your Proxy bid was outbid""

No idea what £©$E_IT_A££ is on about so here's my response.

The AS message isn't too clear and without the Auction number no-one can give you an exact answer. I did try to check out your user ID, the closest match was oldyellar but that gave no clues. Perhaps an AS employee could explain this message?!

I don't think AS checks whether two members of AS are going for the same item (why would they?) and, obviously, there are a number of similar sniping services out there.

I suggest you go to eBay help and read up about Proxy Bids in case that's relevant here.

I also suggest that you bid odd amounts eg. 10.03 instead of 10.00 so the chances of a tie (in which case the 1st bid wins) are minimised.

Give us a bit more info. and maybe we can resolve this?
