Did anybody notice any change at the auctions recently regarding last second bidding (aka sniping)?
In the past this always worked, meaning that either your bid wins or a bid higher than yours wins, which is the expected behavior.
But in the past 3 or 4 attempts of mine trying to snipe at the last seconds (say in the last 10-15sec) as per usual,
a lower bid than mine always wins, which is odd, unless snipe-bidding (let's say in the last 10-15sec) is not working
or allowed anymore, You can even see that the winning bid appears before the countdown clock finishes, so
definately something changed.
or maybe Im too paranoid...
question now is: what is the threshold beyond which a snipe-bid is no longer accepted?
