[quote="Cupid"]Yes, an offset of 8 seconds means that your bid will be placed 8 seconds before the auction is due to end.

Gixen registers your maximum bid with eBay at that time (there is no proxy server involved at any stage and, to be honest, I am not sure what you understand by that), whether you have won and, if so, the amount that you actually have to pay is worked out by eBay when the auction finishes... Gixen retreives that information for you to see here and/or in the desktop application.

Using the desktop to enter snipes and get up to date prices you can configure the refresh interval for it to get the current auction prices, but in any case this does not affect how fast your snipes or changes get to the Gixen servers, they will not be instantaneus, since the request has to go over the internet, but normally it would take less than a second.

You should be aware though that changes made in the last few minutes of the auction are not advisable and may cause your snipes to fail.[/quote]
