RobertSI placed several "live" bids today that appeared to register but didn't appear in the bidding list. Only the winning bidder's inceremental raises did. Meaning, I guess, that the "live" bids I placed only registered as pushing up his bid.
That said -- the system is awful. Several of my bids seem to have been rejected. I thought I won two lots when I didn't. Worse -- one of my bids on a card was placed but appeared as the third bid on the next lot (a Harlem Globetrotters item!).
My lesson -- place regular limit bids and don't try to use the eBay Live function in real time!
Of course, I lost my limit bids, as well -- so I think I'm swearing off eBay Live...
