Dear coders of f**king furbuy...

Some journals are personal, and some journals are business related for Kinzart. For everything else, I don't care.
Fix your timers. Seriously.
How on EARTH can you call your site a auction site if you can't even get your TIMERS right?! I've been noticing this getting WORSE over time. One minute the timer will state it has 5 minutes left. A refresh LITTERLY (not like I walked away and came back refresh) one second later and suddenly the bid is over.
No. Fucking. Way.
Well, nice to know that if I want to do an auction, for anything, I am NOT using Furbuy OR Furbid (Furbid actually has decent timers, just I've been getting some bad rep reports as of late).
Now before anyone goes off saying "Well, why didn't you JUST place what you intended to spend in the first place?" The reason is because generally if you bid too early, you'll attract a bunch of other bidders to try and outbid you right away. This is just the common nature of any auction website (which, oddly Furbid has solved with the '10 minutes after last bid' deal which I find very clever).
And before anyone goes off saying "Why not just make your own site?" One word: Liability. That and I would want to at least embed PayPal into the system itself so that it is much more secure. Unless there is some deal I can find out that fixes the liability concern, I'd be on my domain holder asking for another site to begin the project.
Oh, and in case I forgot to say it: Fix your stupid timers!
