Ibidder didn't place bid Thu Sep 07, 2017 07:46 PM Quote

Today I set up a snipe but no bid was made. Is there a time limit before which I have to set the snipe up? Or is there another reason?

There were two minutes to go on the item after I had set the snipe up so it was a surprise to find that the bid was not made even though my bid was above the finishing price.

The item number was 3620900. A png of the MyIbidder entry is attached.

I am using Windows 10.

Other bids have worked fine.

The item number is not complete, but I found the item. It is 362090017585.
The status shows "Snipe is set too late, may not be able to execute".

I see you set your snipe when it was less than 2 minutes before auction ends, that's why it was too late.

Please check the following FAQ section for more information:

Thank you, Sashka.

I'll know next time to hand crank it.

Best wishes

Hi,

My ibidder failed to place a bid again. This time I placed the snipe about 25 minutes before the end time but ibidder had failed to download my watch list so I entered the item number and placed the snipe. Why did this fail and what should I have done to avoid the problem, please?

A screen clip is attached showing the position after the end. The item number (in full this time!) 302459100718, my ebay id is essexinny.

Best wishes

Adrian

This is not related to the original issue. The status shows that you did not link your eBay account.

Please link it as described here:

Thank you, Sashka,

I have now linked my account but I am puzzled because I have been using ibidder for years so my account must have been linked. I had a bid successful on 10th Sept so the accounts were linked then so why were they unlinked yesterday?

And why was the error message when I tried to load my wish list that my wish list was empty rather than account not linked?

This is a new thing. Proper handling and error messaging are in work. Sorry for confusions.
