We have forund the worm & squashed it.
If you had trouble finding the right buttons to bid please try again.
All good to go.
Thanks to the magic of Fresh Web Media
Not too sure whats happening on the site , but many , if not all of the end times have changed to 23:59 and with less than 24 hours to go were displaying 1 day 2 plus hours left to bid on the items just a few minutes ago, J
Acknowledge the timing thing.
We have had our problems taking a plug-in to air without the due diligence of a pre-test period.
My apologies for that. Blame my reducing but still considerable IT illiteracy. I was warned!!!
THE PROBLEM -
All items were originally set to todays date - I only just realised that the timing on every item was different depending on the time of the day it was loaded.
Last night I changed them all (1 by 1 ggrrr) to the intended 'real' end time of 11:59 this evening - ending today as advertised.
So now all auction item bidding will end at 11:59 tonight.
BUT- there is still an anomoly b/w end time & real time as it seems the software clock is set at Grenwich Mean Time. So, while the end time says 11:59 (intended meaning midnight tonight WA time) the countdown time duration indicator still shows an 8hr difference from our time to software time. !!!! Gggrrrrr. ++++
Rest assured the auction on ALL items WILL BE closing at 11:59 WA time tonight.
NB: And there are still several mystery prices to be uncovered.
New items???
Looking into that now - yes probably but not sure exactly what yet.Hopefully we will be able to replace some of the items snapped up on the "BUY NOW" option.
Christ puppett that 3 hrs past my bedtime! LOl....kind of..it really is! Sad hey![]()
Although this kind of sucks, better they all finish same time and also some were finishing smack bang on in an afternoon kiting session this arvo. Now that's not cricket.
Its all way more exciting than cricket. ![]()
My webby fixed the clock - great hey ?
Yep fantastic. I just had to go back & adjust every item (1x1 again) to WA time - again - !!!!!
Gotta keep smiling hey. But at least its ALL fully GO now.
And bedtime ??? Its Friday night dude - should be too messed up by 12 to bid NOT asleep!!
Well that was a sh1t auction. Tried to bid and the site just kept crashing![]()
Looking at the bid history looks like people that got on ended up just bidding against themselves.
Yup I tried to outbid someone on the Slingshot Fuels, but I couldn't bid at any time in the last half hour because I kept receiving errors. The winner ended up outbidding my original bid by $5, and placed that bid several hours before the auction was due to end ![]()

Thought it might just go that way, given how things had gone prior. There are times when the past is indeed a window to the future. Could'nt be arsed myself, as I had dragged my body out of the sack very early in the day to start bidding only to find all the times had changed. Hit the sack at 9:30 , soooo glad I did

Followed suite James. My brothers didn't and had the same error messages. They are not happy to say the least. Yep glad I hit the sack after a terrible Friday night footy. Not sure why Brisbane even turned up for. Well at least some crew got some cheaper gear unless the reserve card is played. Ha hanhanha
I wonder if the guy who paid $500 (and those who paid nearly $500) for a 2012 Supershinn realise the current price as per the Shinnusa site (and others) is $495

He he he. Or you could have bought now for 799! Now that would save you 100 bucks off retail. 1.5 yrs ago!
OK OK OK enough already ![]()
We certainly had our share of glitches.
I was warned not to plug & play without exhaustive testing but I was excited. My bad.
And I got my share of "I told you so"s !
But despite the problems there will be way more happy than unhappy Im thinking.
Some seriously great bargains had by many.
I'll publish a list of end results on our site once Ive sorted it all.
And we will announce the winners of the Shinn Capri & Dakine Pyros on site as well (give me a day or 2)
If anyones got any serious gripes please give me a call. Im not here to upset people ![]()
And this real life test SHOULD make our next one problem free.
