Reply to "pay for auction not won by auction sniper??"

Yes, I agree in this case it does seem unfair.

People would snipe manually and use AS as backup insurance, thinking they would only pay a fee if something went wrong with their manual bid.

I know it's the 'principal' of the matter and every penny counts, but it *IS* only 25 cents and those other bids might have been the same even if your bid were not placed early. If that's true, you would have lost the auction.

File with support and state your case. The worse that can happen is they will say 'Sorry, No.' Support is on the help page, very bottom.
