eBay Verification Image

eBay Verification Image
From 13:25 5/26/08, eBay starts to place a verification image (CAPTCHA) on eBay sign-in page and it causes a warning " ... You may either have a warning in your eBay account ... " when you sign in to JustSnipe account.

At this time, some of bidding servers are NOT affected by this implementation but please use caution if you have bid that is ending in the next few hours. If eBay starts to block certain IP address a lot of users may experience lost bids due to CAPTCHA implementation.

We will post more update.

eBay Page Not/Slow Responding

eBay Page Not/Slow Responding

(5/7/08) We are seeing sporadically eBay page slow-non responding between 19:00-19:35. The issue affects many users both members in the free and paid plan. Some users may be losing bid with the error message "Snipe Error".

Currently (20:30), the issue seems be resolved by itself. We will be monitoring any problem in the next 12 hours.

************

We notice that the similar issue has been occurring between 19:00 - 19:45 in past 5-6 days. All of the snipe orders were executed from our servers and arrived on eBay sign-in page on time. The delay occurred when snipe order reached eBay bidding server (offer.ebay.com). It seems that some of eBay bidding server (offer.ebay.com) might have issues with the atomic time clock.

Linked PayPal and eBay Account

Linked PayPal and eBay Account.

Lately, eBay implemented a more strict buyer requirement, especially the linked ebay id and PayPal account. When the auction is listed with PayPal payment only (no other forms of payment accepted), eBay system would automatically require a link between eBay id and PayPal account.

Also, some people have reported that their accounts have already linked but the link between eBay id and PayPal may be broken.

To ensure that your bid will not fail, please re-establish the link between eBay - PayPal.

Linking your eBay account to your PayPal account:
http://pages.ebay.com/help/account/ebay-payments-my-payments.html#linking

• Sign into your eBay account and click on "My eBay"
• From the left column of My eBay, under My Account, click the “Addresses” link.
• On the Addresses page, click the “View all shipping addresses” link.
• In the "About Addresses” section, check if there is any PayPal Account currently linked to this eBay account. If no current link, click the Add PayPal Addresses button and sign into your PayPal account. When you sign in to your PayPal account, your eBay and PayPal Verified Accounts will be linked.
• If there is already a linked PayPal account, check to make sure it is the correct one. Otherwise, remove the link and link to the correct one by clicking the Add PayPal Addresses button.

Please check your eBay account and PayPal account again to prevent any fail snipe bid.
