Gixen placed my winning bid, but it says I was outbid

[toughcoins]

Gixen successfully placed my sniping bid on eBay 395091661695, but it says I was outbid by another bidder at $305.19. This was the only bid I placed on this item, and I see no canceled bids on the item, so I don't understand the outbid status.

I'm happy that I won the item for $340.00, but Gixen not correctly reflecting the actual status has me concerned that I may give up bidding on future items when I shouldn't, or that my sniping bids might not be placed, even though they are highest.

Would you please investigate and explain?

So, can you confirm that your snipe bid was more than $340.00 and that Gixen now has a status of 'OUTBID', with an auction price of just $305.19, on the snipes page ?

I can see that the highest two bids were placed on Ebay during the same second, so that price would have been the current one for less than a second. That being the case it does seem odd if that's reported as the final price, especially if Ebay indicated that a bid of more than $340.00 had only raised the price of the auction, and was not even being the highest bid when it was placed.
