Buy It Now Hidden in eBay?

38124 8 5

Hi,
First, I think BidSlammer is awesome!
Do you know why when I go to add 266591399768 to BidSlammer it shows there's a Buy It Now price of $250 but I do not see that when looking at the listing in eBay? If it really has a Buy It Now of $250 I should stay under that value from what your Help states, correct?
Thanks,
Ken

Hello Ken,
Thank you for your question about this item. I would bid whatever you want to pay and ignore the $250.
Yes, it was listed as Buy it Now, but as soon as someone places a bid, then eBay converted it to an auction. So it really isn't a Buy-It-Now any more. We should note that to avoid confusion. Funny no one ever pointed this out in 20 years. So thanks.
Please let us know if you need any other assistance.

Thanks for the information. Figures I'd come up with a question about that. I'm in IT Governance and always watching/questioning what our vendors are doing.
I appreciate the improvements you recently did. Mobile site is great! Have to try the other features.
I also appreciate that you're showing how many seconds a snipe was setup for. There were times I questioned if I really set it up for 1 second so I'd delete and recreate the snipe.
Thanks again,
Ken

Ha, yes there were lots of little improvements thanks to AI. I cleared out the entire backlog of bugs and improvement request with it.
I can just paste in a bunch of old code or HTML and it will not only find the problem ('It appears you misspelled the variable "isCusttomer"') , but will reformat the code, point out security holes, and even suggest improvements.
The next feature is to have a full-page display that shows only the graphs of bidding history. Call it BidWatcher or something. I'll ask AI :)

Wow that's awesome as well as a little scary about AI.
I'm dating myself but in my early days of eBay I ran a sniping app on my PC. Worked great but had to leave the PC on and make sure my clock was synced. I had a long break from using eBay until within the last year my wife started getting in to collecting vintage glass.
I'm very happy I've found BidSlammer. It's been working out great!
I'll have to check out the graphs. Hope you (and AI) keep up the great work!
Thanks again,
Ken

Hi, I won 315067102932 yesterday but BidSlammer has Did Not Win status with the error "You did not meet the minimum bid increment...".
I was going to renew after using the last snipe in the account but I still have it.
Regards,

Fortunately, there is a new log feature (log icon in Completed) and it gives this link:
315067102932">https://bidslammer.com/user/log/315067102932
It looks like I didn't wait long enough after the auction closed to determine win status. That's an easy fix. Thank you.
As a side note, it looks like the log needs (a) to clarify the error and (b) to explain the duplicates are multiple servers placing snipes.

Happy to help out a little.
I like the logging!
