I want to release the next version of BidNobble officially, but since some of you have problems bidding on some auction and I can’t simulate the bug by me (I suppose it’s some changes of some of the eBay sites) I need your help!
All I need is an auction URL to an auction that BidNobble is supposed to bid on, but can’t. This auction must be still running, so I can make tests with it and see what’s the problem!
My suggestion is that some of you, that have this problem, try to find similar auctions that will finish after 5-6 days and current bid amount is about 1-2$. Then set BidNobble to bid on them (bid before 3600000 sec, so the bid is placed immediately) and if BidNobble fails post the URL of the auction on the forum!

Thank You in advance for your help!

IMPORTANT!!! News (08.01.2006) I have made lots of changes in the new version of BidNobble, so i will need some people to test it before i release it official!
In the bidding dialog there is a new option to set the snipe time 3600000 seconds before the auction's end time so You can make tests with small amounts of money early in the auctions life when You are sure You will be overbidded later!

I really need YOU to make these tests and give me some feedback and bug reports so i can fix them before the official release!!!

You can download the pre release version here: http://www.bidnobble.com/download/bidnobble_pre.jar

For all the Mac users now the popup shows up with any mouse button, so it must not be a problem to open with a Mac mouse!
