Default GIXEN snipe service (problems?)

Is anyone else have problems with GIXEN today?

Nope. I bid that day and it went through, but did lose the auction as my bid came second.

I'm sure all the snipe services have glitches from time to time, but I've used them for many years and never had a problem.

Got an email today on a "New Gixen Website". The UI looks nice and usable, and they are looking for input.

Tried to use Gixen today and it failed, returning the following error message: "Auction Restricted, bidder has unpaid items." It is March 29 and the auctions I won and hadn't paid for yet were from March 27 from a different seller (plus it took at least a day to address combined shipping with that seller). Is this new? Can sellers control who bids based on this parameter? I didn't think so. And I've been on eBay since 1998 with 100% feedback rating (1700+ feedback). The item I missed out on was nothing much and there were zero bids, so I will wait for it to get relisted. Just never had this happen to me before and I'm confused more than anything.

Edit/Update: so I followed up with eBay and it was an eBay issue not a Gixen issue, and it wasn't related to my March 27 auction wins. I actually had a different seller hit me with an unpaid item strike even though I asked if I could delay payment as I was interested in a few of his other auctions. He cancelled the original transaction without warning even after agreeing to the payment delay, then hit me with the strike. Anyway, eBay customer service was actually very helpful and cleared the unpaid item strikes against me and all is well with my world again.

Just thought I would provide this update in case it helps anyone in the future. Cheers!
