Hi, i lost the bidding for this item but you show I won. Actually I tied with the winner but they gave it to the other bidder. Can you explain why I löst and credit me back for the loss? Thank you

Hello David,
Thank you for your question about a snipe showing as a win. We credited your account as you requested. We also updated the snipe to its correct status in your account.
This occurred because of an intentional fail-safe we have in place for a niche situation: Where your bid equals the starting price but came in after someone else's. eBay returns "Success" for some reason.
To avoid this, always make sure to bid competitively higher than the starting price.
We hope we have resolved this to your satisfaction. Please let us know if we can help with anything else.

Hi,
. I don
The starting price was 1 cents my bid was for $35.00.

Someone else bid $35 two seconds before you did. So to win, you needed to bid $35 + $1 = $36. The $1 is eBay's minimum bid increment.

Hi, Thanks for the explanation.
I don't understand why I recently did not win this auction..
Ebay # 304731094854. The winner's bid was less than mine.
