Re: Am I still paranoid?

Sibernames outbid email notification doesn't seem to work too well. I know I've had the same problem. But I also know the bids were already at 5k when I first looked at it Wed and heaven only knows what the proxy bid was.

I'm not quite sure what you're complaining about here other than the loss of an email notice. I watch Sibername quite closely now because of other auction problems and it seems they're running a pretty clean auction now.

I though that is what these auctions were all about, all interested parties shuld have the opportunity to bid ...
If you set a proxy bid you set the highest price you are prepared to pay and theoretically an email shouldn't make any difference.

Otherwise you monitor the domain right up to the last second and bid accordingly.

I wouldn't expect an auction house to babysit me
