On my iPhone app I bid $65 dollars on Ebay auction 292049743568 for a Cleveland sand wedge. It sold for a steal of a price at $52! I was sitting here watching it and could have easily won the auction by simply doing it like I always have in the past. Needless to say I am NOT IMPRESSED by this app at all. Any ideas for how this could possibly happen? I'm probably done with this but if there is a logical explanation I may consider using it one more time. Thanks.

What does the app say was he reason you didn't win? Something in regards to your password? I think it's an eBay issue and not myibay. I am having the same issue today! Hopefully this issue gets fixed.

Yes you are right it says "Refused login(password problem?)". Does this happen often? Thanks for your reply. I should have just done it manually but I wanted to see the app work. Unfortunately I lost a really great deal. It's really going to be hard to trust this app now. Live and learn.

That was a weird one. I noticed that and started to investigate. I did not make any changes, but it was gone after short period of time.
Several logins were rejected by eBay saying "invalid password". Sounds like some backend issue, but we'll never know.
Sorry for the lost snipes. I wish it was all under my control.

Harveyman53 - I have been using it for 5+ years and this is the 1st time I have ever had a problem.
Sashka - I am still getting an error. "Refused login (password problem?)"

PreludeVTEC01,
Please relogin to the sniper using your current eBay login information to re-sync your account.

Sashka - I have many times. I even reset my ebay password today thinking that might be the problem. I know for sure I have the new password synced will all areas of myibay. I use the Firefox plug in and I can set up the snipe and everything. Then log onto the site, here, and see the snipe and how much time is remaining. Then once the time comes for the snipe, nothing happens and I get the password error.

If this was just a recent one (within the last 1-2 hours), please provide the item number.
