Hi,

I have be playing around with the stand alone version of myibay. I like it a lot it seems to be very powerful and may be be a big help.

At this point I need click on each item individually to see if it is in my price range for the item since the shipping charges charges do not show up. Is this a present limitation with the software or is there some thing wrong with my setup.

What I would really like would be to be able to sort the items by Price+ shipping the way ebay does. Is there a way to do this?

Looks like a great piece of software,
Keep up the good work

E-mail from Myibay

"The following bid attempt was placed per your request:
Item #160528122594:
Final price: 56.00
Snipe:
Status from eBay:
Could not win (80): Sign in or register to continue."

Myibay was saying I had a weak password even although I'd won a bid the day before.

Anyway I changed my password on EBAY. Myibay does not recognise the new password although I can still log in with the old one.

Using Firefox with Myibay addon and Ubuntu 10.10

Sashka,

I've been reading about improvements users have suggested and your concern that they may confuse or make things less simple for the majority of the users. I have a suggestion that may address that.

I found a feature of firefox for advanced configuration when I was trying to make the Addin window popup larger. If you type about:config in the address bar in firefox it brings up a web page with a warning symbol that states

This might void your warranty!

Changing these advanced settings can be harmful to the stability, security, and performance of this application. You shuod only continue if you are sure of what you are doing.

Then there is a button below this warning labeled "I'll be careful, I promise!"

You could do something similar to this and perhaps also have a button labeled "Reset to Default Settings" In case someone who did not know what they were doing changed some configuration settings.

If you wanted to be even more secure against novice users accidentally advanced settings which would end up confusing them you could force the user to enter a some password or do something like firefox does using "about:config" which is in effect a hidden password (you have to know what your doing to get to this page in the first place.)

Doing something like this might give the best of the best of both worlds - simplicity for the majority of the users and advanced options for more experienced users.

To keep support issues down you could state on the "Warning page" that these advanced features are not guaranteed to work. This way if an advanced option some how got broken an advanced user could still use the software it would just take more time like it does at present.

Hope this suggestion may be usefull. It would be great to have some great advanced features. Doing this might allow addition of more advanced features without complicating the things for the majority of users and keep your risks down with adding new code.

I have attached a screen shot of the about:config page firefox has implemented.

hi howe do i delete items once listed regards john

is there any way to select 6 same item and say please i want only 1 of them whichever i won on the BID! this feature would be Marvellous

why do I get 'your bid was too low' when my bid was clearly higher than the winning bid?

Hello,

When refreshing my status page, the "Time Left" stats update, but the current number of bids and current bid price do not. When I checked on eBay, the listing had two more bids than what was reflected on my status page? I had to delete it, then re-add it for an update.

This is an international item..make any difference?

Thanks for any help!

I just had an ebaY bid in place that didn't happen?!?!?!? I use myibay all the time and it has not worked :[ Any ideas? Min to raise bid was $40, and I was set at $40.05...

I have lost to someone else who bid 10.60 while i bid 10.99. Now how is this possible?

Hi if i set myibay to enter my bid just 1 second before the auction ends will the bid have time to go through?I know it says 6-10 seconds is best but I really dont want to lose this item?
Thanks

Hi there Sashka,

Just a short note to thankyou for the Myibay tool. It's absolutely superb.

I'd like to chat offline, and offer you a token 20$ payment for your time writing this.

I'm currently running a free version of Myibay Client but I'm not sure it's the best and most upto date one

Cheers,

M

Hello, Sashka!
Can you add checkbox to turn off confirmation windows eq. when I updating several items in list, or importing several items from Watching List.
That confirmation windows is really preventing comfortably working with app.

Hello:

I had sniping set up days ahead of time for this item (230588187777). I was logged in and the item was won with a bid much lower than my snipping bid, and my snipe never entered a bid. What happened? This was very frustrating--it was a rare item at a GREAT price, and I lost it.

Thanks.

My buffer is set to 3 seconds...I was was highest bidder presumably with 3 seconds left...then I lost. Did someone snipe with a shorter buffer? How could I have lost with 3 seconds left? Should I set buffer to 1 or two seconds? Advice?
Thanks, bob

Hi, Would like to download a copy of the eBay snipe software for the MAC OS 10.5. Can anyone supply a link this beta software? Thank you in advance.

Hello;

I have been trying to snipe but I am unable to open the program on W7, it worked before but now the only message that I get is "Not Responding", it has been a couple of weeks already. Any issues that I am not aware of?

Thx
Joe

We are in the process of transition our name to Myibidder.

The name change will be done to avoid a possible confusion with eBay trademarks (Myibay/Mybidder service is not a subsidiary of eBay, Inc.), and to comply with trademark rules.

You do not need to do anything on your side except updating your bookmarks if you have any.

The transition process will take some time so please hold your breath.
We are sorry for the possible hassle in advance, but we will do everything possible to make the transition as easy as possible.

It does not affect your snipes.

I can not find how to create a group after an item already has a snipe started and you find another item. Now you need to create a group for these two items.

it happened after myibay domain changes

ps
its not important for me, but just for info...

pssss
Thank you for your time!

Hello, it seems I cant login to your app using my ebay login. It worked so far. I tried it today and it wont let me in. I dont know why? Thanks
