help! wrong time is for end of auction!

hermioneeMember

Dear All,
Can any one help me? I am new to this!
I just registered with Auction Sniper, and the items I am interested in have come up, but the finish time for the auction shown is one hour after the finish time shown on Ebay.
When I registered I put UK GMT, which is the time zone I am at.
Does anyone know how I get the time on Auction Sniper corrected?
Thank you so much for your help.

Read the FAQs etc for more info. but all should be well. The ridiculous countdown timer against the item is meaningless (written by a work-experience boy, it relates to your PC time rather than the real time). AS bids on ebay as if it was you at (or around) the lead time (I use 8 seconds) amount of seconds from the end. It also bids in the currency of the auction...

Thank you for your reply - it was helpful.
I have now successfully used auction sniper, and have won two items! This could be dangerous!

Auction snipers end of auction time is not equal with eBay end of time in the Netherlands .
When an auction ends at 20:00 hour in the Netherlands , Auction Sniper end of auction time is one hour later : 21:00 Dutch Time .
I missed a few auctions because of this problem.
Has it something to do with our winter - and summertime . ( Auction sniper is than to early , our summertime starts at 31 March , the clock goes one hour forward ).
Who can help me ???
Best regards , Marc
