I DID NOT RECEIVE AN OUTBID NOTIFICATION EMAIL?
Email is UNRELIABLE at best. The system tries to send out emails any time you are outbid but at times emails get lost, sometimes they get delayed, sometimes junk/spam/bulk filters block or miss file them… lots can happen. It is best to watch your auction items close Sunday nights or place a LARGER proxy bid so that the system can bid for you.
If you use Hotmail/live/outlook it appears to have the most aggressive spam/junk mail filter of them all. Here are some instructions to assist in preventing our emails from going to spam/junk this is very similar in other emails as well. Yahoo, sympatico and Gmail can also have some issues with spam/junk to just whitelist or safe sender list us.
