Note – our software always prevents you from being able to add snipes too close together. I feel we should catch that problem so you never even have to worry about it.

Thanks for mentioning this. This is a tough issue. In fact there are many ways that eBay may occasionally throw up a random warning page. We used to honor these, but we would get in trouble since sometimes the warning is something really important, such as (like you said) a product recall notice for a particular country. Or it could be a fraud notice.

We found that if we gave a checkbox “Always override warnings”, everyone would just check it and leave themselves really vulnerable.

So: Our policy is to honor the warnings by not executing the snipe. We believe this policy keeps you out of trouble. However, we are going to seriously consider allowing the recall notices, after seeing your post. Feel free to open a discussion on our forum about this, I’d like to hear input from other users.
