You got the double whammy. Sunday evening (prime time) and an auction that ended on the exact hour. Use the search at the top of this page to poke around other posts on this same issue. Sunday PM requires 15 to 30 seconds. Exact hour requires the same. Sorry. You're not the first. But that's why this forum is here. We discuss many problems. Like this one, many of them are outside of AS' control.
Better luck next time. If you would like a list of the "common" problems, let me/us know. We'll be happy to supply it.
P.S. Your snipe was $35 over the high bid, but that doesn't mean you would have won it. The high bidder's proxy bid could have been over that. With any kind of luck, you'll buy the item for less in the next auction. If I have some how insulted you, it was not my intent.
Come back often.
