I was watching on the AS site as the auction counted down to zero. The darn snipe NEVER FIRED! Then I rebooted the program, and it's telling me that the auction that ended about 15 minutes ago has 5 hours before ending? Somebody better clue EBay in on this because the AUCTION HAS ENDED!
I am pissed beyond words, because the seller was going to combine shipping with another item I won from them if I also won this item...and I would have won as no one else bid on it...INCLUDING ME because the AS didn't fire.

I hit the update prices button, and after three minutes of inaction (that means that the page failed to refresh or update the prices), I closed the browser and reopened and signed back into AS. That is when AS displayed that the auction that indeed ended incredibly now had over 5 hours remaining! The auction was over! I accessed the EBay site and the auction had ended with no bids AT ALL! I checked AS two hours later and it STILL shows the closed auction as active.

I filed a support report immediately. I also notified the seller that I had intentions of bidding but this POS AS service failed to fire. Since he had no bids, we agreed that I would pay what I had set my maximum bid at. He sold it to me. No thanks to AS. I have money in my account that I will be wanting a refund on. Screw me once, shame on you...there will not be a second time.
Wow, nothing like overreacting, eh? AS is a great service. You had some sort of glitch, the nature of which is as yet undetermined, and you call AS a "POS" blah blah blah.

Instead of, oh, having a tiny bit of patience and trying to figure out what the problem was. I mean, obviously thousands of happy AS users must be just smoking crack or something, right? Roll Eyes
Another 4 poster screaming like a "stuck pig"

Just assume he is from one of AS competitors until he proves otherwise.

None of my snipes have failed to go off this year and I have used AS for several hundred transactions with no glitches whatever.

I can only think these people are either in difficulty because they don't understand how to do it, or they are from the competition.

Time I think for AS to take a hard line.
Check if the person is genuine.
If in doubt remove post.
