Hi, I have two queries/ideas to suggest.. I really hope you REPLY to this message because several other times when i have emailed i have never had a reply. I was attempting to bid on the ds lite ending today (Saturday), but AGAIN i failed because of the Swapitshop timer. I was speaking to my friend on the phone at the time and he was experiencing the same problem.. we both had different times on the consoles with about a minute's difference (this was the same console). When it had 40 seconds to go i clicked on it, and it had frozen on ELEVEN seconds, not 40. I then refreshed again and it had ended. I was going to bid 42500, and it went for less than that in the end. The next ds lite is in 25 days time, so you can see i am extremely disappointed and peed off. I cant be bothered to wait that long, so its a missed chance, because your timer is not correct. I know its not my computer doing this because 1) My friends messed up at the end too and he missed out on the Xbox 360 he wanted and 2) This has been happening for the last few WEEKS for me. I've been having to bid with 10 seconds to go because it ends at random times. I didnt even get a chance to bid at that time this time because it messed up even more. *Removed because i dont want some people reading this bit* The other query i want to make is about the Ipod Shuffle that ended today (From Swapits). It was won for 16, 000 swapits by someone who had NEVER swapped. I think this is highly unfair on people that have saved up for things like that, when someone who has only saved up codes can win it for absolutely free. I personally think there should be a restriction to the consoles and other high value stuff on the site, so that people with only 5 Rating or above can bid on them. Otherwise we get people getting stuff for free, which im sure lots of people are unhappy about. I hope you read this and reply to it with a fairly decent comment to make.. I look forward to reading it Thanks, Robin Smith -The_Robinator

Im phoning them up tomorrow its just been happening too often and you miss out on stuff..

I have usually bidded 10 seconds before the end, then again.. but i didnt even have a chance to do that this time Jeeez...


And some gay NEWBIE won the shuffle for 16k.. People like that REALLY annoy me..
