One of the things that I am not a fan of with the Yahoo Auctions of Japan, the 5 minute extensions which can go on and on and the ability for the seller to end the auction at any time they choose. I got stuck with an item once because the seller ended the auction days early and at the time I was the high bidder. I had changed my mind on the item and knew that I had no worries as there would be last minute biding. There is also the chance of a delay in a bid due to Internet connections or slow connections from an Internet provider to Jauce and then to Yahoo. There are a couple of cyclones in Asia that may be messing with the satellites. I know that Japamart has their own rules about more than one of their represented clients bidding on the same item, I wonder if Jauce has the same rules. Or maybe its as you say, something stinks. I would suspect your beef would be with Yahoo and not Jauce. Sorry for you missing out Muddy.
