Al,
I have the same problem. I emailed Bidnip. They are working on a fix, it’s due to an EBAY API change. It only effects books and music which pretty much covers everything for me.

Anybody interested in this before it goes on eBay? Make an offer. I sell as bsidechi on eBay.
Jackie McLean Bluesnik Blue Note 4067 record has west 63rd inc on label, dg side 2, P in wax, RVG stamped. Cover has New York 23, and is laminated.
Record is in VG to VG+ shape, no skips, scuffs, stratches; cover is in VG- to VG shape, no seam splits or tape repair, but there is some residue on front cover, tape? and there something of a liquid nature was spilled on top back cover.

Just checked BidNip again this morning and it’s still not working. Could it just be my account? Anyone else out there experiencing problems. It looks like it’s one of those mythical Y2K problems that never actually happened: When I try to snipe an item it tells me that the item closed on 30 November 1999 at 12 a.m. — time remaining minus 4103 days, 17 hours, 55 minutes and 43 seconds. I kid you not.

Hi Al. Winning bid was a sniper at $169. You might have taken it at $200 as it looks like there was only one sniper. Both buyers and sellers have come to rely on this unregulated sniper software outside the purview of ebay. A simple glich like this costs you the record, and the seller about $40+, or looked at differently, saved the winner from competing with unknown amounts of other snipers.
