A Guide to 20 Ways You Missed That eBay Snipe!
Hopefully you are not reading this article because you were “slammed,” or outbid on an item that you really wanted. Well, don’t fret. In this article, we will discuss 20 ways that you can lose an important item because your eBay account is not set up properly!
We are going to bulletproof your BidSlammer account so that you can significantly reduce your chances of missing out on an item that you want. Even if you are an eBay guru, you will learn something important, as most of the reasons are not trivial.
Remember, when you snipe, you are “bidding blind” — and you will not know what the problem is, if any, until the bid is actually placed and it’s too late. Notice we say “outbid,” not “missed.” You are not missing the snipe since it is placed on time. Instead, you are being outbid or blocked for a variety of reasons.
If you experience a situation where you receive an unusual error message, we invite you to post it here. Stay current by subscribing to the thread. These actions will help us refine our product, eliminate errors, and keep up with the ever-changing world of eBay!
Ok, let’s get started bulletproofing. Here are the 20 ways you might have missed that snipe!
