Due to circumstances beyond our control, and the deactivation of the eBay APIs at this extremely inconvenient time, the system will be down until the end of March. Sorry for the inconvenience.

BINSniper Sidebar 4.3 Maintenance Release
A new maintenance release, version 4.3, is now available at Firefox Addons.
The 4.3 version will operate the same as the previous version (4.2).
VieBuy 4.4 released
VieBuy.com is now running version 4.4
This update enables the option to include Auctions with Best Offer when searching for BIN listings. This option has no effect when searching for auctions or All Listings, since they are already included.
Items found by this feature will have Auction: added before the title.
eBay has forced Best Offer on some auction listings without the seller’s prior consent, so buyers may object to offers in some cases.
eBay does not currently allow auction listings to have both Best Offer and Buy It Now, so these listings will only display an option to view the item without a buy button. It is possible that both options could be available if eBay forces the Best Offer option on an auction with Buy It Now set.
If the version number displayed at the top of the page is not 4.4, refresh the web page to run the current version. You may need to clear your cache it still doesn’t load the new code.
Disable BIN Filtering in BINSniper
We are recommending that everyone disable the BIN Filtering option in BINSniper. This option is interacting with the new eBay process of batching items and may be preventing new items from being displayed.
As we previously posted, eBay is now batching items and publishing them on a delay that ranges from 0-15 minutes. Items are published to the feeds and the website at the same time. If your BIN filter is set below the delay time, the items won’t appear.
You should disable the feature or set it to at least 20 minutes.
The option will be removed in BINSniper 3.0 (coming very soon).
