Reply to "Revise "Ready" Message on Sniper Status Report"

Yep, the cause in this case is likely that we sent the snipe but never received any reply at eBay at all. 7:30pm on a sunday night is about as busy as they ever get.

And those snipes that end on the hour and half hour are worse than even that because so many more are ending exactly then.

There is no message beyond "did not win" because we have nothing to base it on. We received no reply at all to your snipe we sent. We cant tell if it's a problem with eBay, the internet, our ISP, and so on. It really could be anywhere.

In this case given that I know our ISP and the internet was ok last night and the fact that this seems to happen with great frequency with snipes on the hour/half hour and sunday night peak eBay item I'm pretty sure that's what it is. I dont think we'd want to program into our system though that any snipe that ends on a sunday night that we dont get a reply for is eBays fault.
