Three items that Gixen won for me are displaying "BID UNDER ASKING PRICE" even though I won the auctions. There is also a message in italics below that saying "Why did I lose this auction?" and is a hyperlink, but clicking on the link takes me to a blank page. Item numbers are 110909680099, 140790847036, and 180932266951. Not a huge issue, just aesthetic, not accurately displaying my bid results. Functionally, my bids are going through just fine.

In an unrelated issue, Gixen is showing my bid history back to June 24th. I'm not complaining, I like it, I just want to make sure the system isn't storing my eBay password for more than 3 days.

Were these snipes Mirrored?... If so, did you notice what status Gixen has for these snipes on the Mirror tab?... It is common for Won auctions to have an incorrect status on the Main tab, for a short time, if the Mirror server is the one that wins them, this is more likely if your Mirror offset is higher than your Main offset... But it should sort itself out eventually, so if they remain that way for more than a few hours then something is not updating as intended.

Yes, snipes should get deleted after a couple of days, so there may be a separate issue there... what is your eBay id?.. If you prefer not to state that here you can contact Mario via email via the address given on the Support tab above.

All were mirrored, and that could be reason. They don't show up on the mirrored tab (it appears they've already been purged). It makes sense if there was something wrong with bidding from the main site, because when I go to the auction's bid history it only shows 1 bid from me instead of the usual 2. So most likely the main bid didn't go through but the mirror did. Yet another reason why people should pay for the mirror, it's worth it!

I will send Mario an email about the snipes not being deleted.

Thanks for the help, Cupid!

All three were won by mirror, not because main wasn't working correctly, but probably by chance.

As for the bid history not being purged, this was indeed an issue that I resolved now. Old items will be purged soon. Thank you for letting me know.
