How come I’m outbid but my snipe doesn’t know it yet?

We check if you are outbid as follows:
If the item ends within 30 minutes, we may check 10 every minutes
If the item ends in an hour, we may check every 20 minutes
If the item ends in a day, we may check every 12 hours
If the item ends in 7 days, we may not check yet.

Please note that you can click on View Extended Information just above your snipes, and it will give you this information immediately, so you're only one click away from the information you want.
Also, during peak hours, especially Sunday evenings, our message server can fall behind. Of course, you don’t have to wait for the server to catch up: you can just click on the item in the snipe and go straight to the auction to know how you made out.


"View Extended Information"?
Hey Bill! Good work! Now if you would just change the text on the main page so it doesn't say 'Place your bid exactly when you want … seconds before the auction closes!' Smile We get sooo many people asking why AS placed their bid early .... poor Shirl's arthritic fingers can't take much more! (running off before I get whacked over the head by Shirl).
