Comment Topic: JBidwatcher Tips and Tricks / Feature Request: Disable Sleep when Open

I’d second this request, if for nothing else that when my wife uses it she often forgets to turn off the sleep mode.
Thanks k.

Comment Topic: JBidwatcher Help / Minimum Legal Bid = Reserve?

Never mind, it was a fixed-price purchase i.e. “not an auction”. Seems a bit silly to me, permitting folks to sell stuff on an auction site when you can’t bid on it, you can only buy it at a fixed price …. I can buy it off his web-site. I guess it gives sellers more exposure, but it doesn’t help buyers much.

Comment Topic: JBidwatcher Help / Minimum Legal Bid = Reserve?

Hi,

OK, I looked at the FAQs and searched the forums for the phrase “Minimum Legal Bid” and “Legal Bid”.

I am watching an auction (at least I think it’s an auction) which I think has a reserve. It also has a “Buy Now” tag.

When I look at the listing in Jbid, it shows the Buy Now price as the “current” price. When I look at the Jbid snipe screen it says “Minimum Legal Bid”, which is ALSO EQUAL to the “Buy Now” price.

Does this mean this is just a sale and NOT an auction i.e. the price is fixed and the Minimum Legal Bid = Reserve = Buy Now Price??

(I am loathe to add a bid and increment to see what the “Reserve” is).

Thanks
