It seems like watched items ($0.00 bid) disappear after they close. There is no way to see what they sold for. Why don't they stay under Watched or Completed?

Hello Ronald,
Thank you for your question about Watched items. You can add an item for a bid of 0.01 and it will retain it. I'll put your suggestion on the board, we just have to think of a way to present it to customers.
We used to have it this way and then people thought they missed snipes. Also, a lot of people have hundreds of items and it makes the display messy.
I'll try to think of a way to present this, but for now, you can add a bid of $0.01. The Add Snipe box will let you place a low bid.
Is this acceptable for now?

Separate issue. I'm not sure what's going on, but I couldn't login this morning, then this message was displayed.

It was a major database update. It took longer than I thought so I didn't think to put up the maintenance page. All is well.
