|
|
I bid on an ebay auction item #133853516662
The seller was selling several items. I bid on 4 different auctions and wound up winning 1 out of 4. Auction #1 and #3 I was clearly beat on as the wining bid exceeded my bid highest bid. I won Auction #2 but the 4th auction I lost where my highest price was $89 and the winning bid was $51. What gives? |

It looks like you were using groups and this item was canceled when the first item in a group was won. This is by design.
Groups are not a cosmetic thing - it's a feature to control what is won, and what canceled. |

Just to pick up on this, if I have three items I am sniping on from different sellers, does this mean if my first ending auction I win will the other auction bids be cancelled |

If you put all those snipes in the same Group, then yes they will.
This is the purpose of a normal Group, it enables you just to win one of an item when they are replaceable with each other and so that you don't have to manage your snipes while you do. _________________ Mark |
