[quote="ohhwell"]I put in a sipe for listing 168415899763 My user name on ebay is ohhwell0525 I had my max snipe set to $46. The highest bid that wasn't me was $27.02. Then I sniped in at $28.02. That should have won it BUT then gixen sent another bid in at my max of $46 which I now owe to the seller. What on earth? It cost me almost $20 more than it should have.
