Past weeks we have been working to make PoshBid.com service better and more reliable.
While working with some technical difficulties we also have worked with some basic rules and features of PoshBid.com.
From Technical difficulties we were able to fix the Autobidder, its reliability and functions. Flash Auctions with its 30 sec interval. We also discovered that most our problems were server related. Due to that we decided last week to move our database and the website to a new server.
As for Non-Technical changes we have corrected our Terms and Conditions, its Winning Limits, Shipping destinations and Auction times.
SERVERLast weekend we decided to move our database and auction site to our new server in Munich, Germany (Giga-Hosting GmbH). Most problems were server related.
As the server is brand new and needed some setup we are behind our schedule of re-launching our services (Basic configurations took 24hours). At the moment we are in the middle of full testing and we should be ready to go shortly.
As soon as the page is properly tested in the new server we will continue with our services and shipping out winnings from past weeks.
Invoices will be also sent for last auctions.
(We can not modify our database in the middle of changing servers)
COMPUTER SLOWDOWNSComputer slowdowns were server related and are not possible with the new dedicated server.
AUTOBIDDEROur AutoBidder ha been modified to make it more reliable and easier to use. Now our users are able to Pause and or Delete their AutoBidders at any point of the auction.
Notice! If you are setting your autobidder make sure that the auction timer has not passed 1 minute. This is important as Autobidders are run with 1 minute interval and if the auction timer is showing less than 1 minute it might not start at all. Therefore every user is suggested to place at least one bid before setting your auction to run with autobidder.
FLASH AUCTIONS 30Sec When bidding on 30 second Flash auctions there is no more refreshing to the entire page.
However users are suggested to bid at the Auction Product Page to see the last 9 bids in real time. Also users are not suggested to bid on the last seconds.
