    Er, yeah, I'm not disagreeing with any of that!
    Why do you all think the OP got a 'you've been outbid' message and lost the auction then??
    I'll suggest again, that everyone reads what the OP a c t u a l l y s a i d because that was surely the point of the thread. ;)

    I got an 'you've been outbid message' but my bid does not appear in the bid history...confusing or what????:confused:

    That's happened to me before too. I presume because someone has already bid higher and there's not enough time for me to try to beat their maximum bid whatever it is. The bidding lists are confusing, I agree.

    OP, I know your not daft or anything, but just to eliminate the possibility...... Are you 100% sure it was the you are outbid please bid again to try and win page, and not the you are too late to bid and the item has already sold page?
