Lately I have found that I need to manually update the current prices of the items I am sniping. Also, I can't remember the last time AS sent me a message saying my bid was too low. Is it a temporary problem, my problem, ??????

Larry, if you don't already have this, this is a great site to use the last few hours.
http://javascript.internet.com/miscellaneous/auctionitemrefresher.html
I usually use it the last few hours and then I can see I am completely synced with Ebay. I know it is not answerin g your problem, but I thought I would show it to you. I assume you know that A S does not up date regularly until near the end?

Thanks, I didn't know that. How near the end? Come to think of it, I always got the email after it was too late.
That's up to you. You can use it as long as you want. I usually put the program in gear a couple of hours before the auction ends if I'm going to be around.
Or, did you mean when does A S update? They up date maybe once a day a coupe of days before an auction ends , but do'nt update frequently until maybe the last hour(so they say).

I meant AS. By the way, your url for the refresher comes back "not Found".
I see that! Not sure why as I went to the site and copied it from my address!!
I don't understand why it is doing that.Try copying it by hand into your address.

Larry, I think it is something here because if I copy any of them , they come up. 
It's the forum that's causing your problem. Clicking anything with:
http://javascript... comes out
http://java_script...
After clicking, just remove the underscore from your address line and then enter, Then drag the little icon from the address line to your links toolbar.

Hey Larry - this is what Sara had to say about how often AS updates/checks the auction status...
quote:
The current price will update every 20 minutes to 24 hours depending on how much time is left in the auction. We check more frequently as the auction nears the end, and less frequently when it first starts.
Thanks, all y'all. Fine bunch of folks to answer my questions promptly.
You're welcome, Larry!
Puppy, thanks, I didn't even notice it!!
