November 11, 2010: Some snipes were missed this week due to a system update on one of our computers. We did our usual clock synchronization for Daylight Savings, and forgot to reboot one of the servers.
In other words, this was not a system error — but a human error. Generally When we make these, we are able to patch them in time before anyone notices. Again, we apologize for any surprise or confusion. All snipes are being placed at this time.
Here is our annual “Holiday Offers” mailing, with four ways to earn more free snipes, t-shirts, and more!
On Friday, November 27 all snipes added for all users will have a green “freebie” snipe icon.
With purchases of $50 or more on your personal “Extend Service” tab in your BidSlammer account. Please note we have discontinued “double bucks” programs and replaced them with reduced costs and massively-enhanced service and never-expiring free bucks. In the last year there are too many improvements to mention, but if we have earned your trust, we would like you to consider going long-term to save money. Remember, all payments never expire, not even the bonus portions. We will keep adding features.
Post a story about an item you won using BidSlammer and get a Free T-shirt. Details in “Super Slams” category on the forum.
Post a link to us in your blog or website with a short blurb about an item you won using BidSlammer and get a Free Long-sleeve T-shirt (a $30 value) plus an additional $10 site credit. Send a message to the helpdesk to claim your reward.
We really believe that we have the best service, and we want to tell everyone we can, and we want you to tell everyone you can. No fake reviews please – you must be an existing user of BidSlammer to give credibility to your review. (If there is something we can improve, tell us ASAP!)
BidSlammer 2.0 is now completely released!
We are happy to introduce our new site look! You can tour the new site here.
We also launched our new community forum. All active BidSlammer accounts have been copied over to the forum, so you should not have to register – just log in! It will take a while for the forum to populate, but we are redirecting all our customer service there.
We will be announcing some of the newer features in the blog in upcoming weeks … so make sure and stay tuned.
‘Nuff said!
We are pleased to unveil the new BidSlammer logo. The coolest sniping service ever now has the coolest logo! :-)
We are releasing our new site look this weekend. And we totally love it — the red and black are “the colors of sniping”, that is, sniping guns are black and targets are always red. We are getting rid of our current “soft blue,” because 1992 called — they wanted their web designer back! Blech.
Keep an eye out for the matching red & black website coming soon. We just wanted to formally establish our new mark — and whet your whistle for some more neat things coming down the line this month.

Together we have created something really useful that makes buying on eBay a much better experience! Nine years have gone into BidSlammer, and we’re dedicated to making it better every day. Thank you for making us part of your eBay World.
