apparent multiple snipe up bids

quote:

it seems to indicate that I have bid 3 increasing amounts

All the same bid amounts.

Is this some querk of the servers?

Multiple AS servers placing multlipe snipes for backup. Ebay isn't "suppose" to allow multiple bids for the same amount, but when they get in at the same time, that's what it looks like. Probably gets the other bidders wondering what the heck is going on.

Did it all happen in nanoseconds?

Plus or minus.

Or am I missing something?

Nope.

Thanks Rick. What I still am not quite getting is why it appears that I bid $69, $76 and finally $82 (all with the same time stamp), while another bidder upped me to $75 and then $81 before running out of time. This other bidder had increasing time stamps, while all of mine appear to be the same. Whether it helps or not, the other bidder seemed to be on another time: I was being shown as 16:03:12 AEST, while the other bidder was shown as 20:26:37 - 20:26:52 AEST. Why I would be shown as 16:..., when the time was really near to 8.30 PM AEST, I don't know. My main concern is that I thought there was one snipe. The ebay record suggests I did a multiple bid.

alk,

How about posting a link to the bid history?
