 * A client just finished their first-ever auction, and all in all, it went well.
   Thanks for a good, usable plugin!
 * During the auction, however, there were a few instances where a bidder’s bid 
   was recorded twice, at the same amount, with the same timestamp.

 * The users swear they only entered the bid once (did not double-click, etc.). 
   In the DB, the entries’ date stamps are from 0 to 4 seconds apart.
 * Since it didn’t affect the bid increment or the winning bid, it does not invalidate
   the auction, but it could affect the overall perception of the product’s accuracy.
 * Any idea what might have caused these duplicate entries?
 * Thanks in advance.

 * Hi,
 * This may have happened because they refreshed the page and the browser sent the
   information with the bid details again.
 * Also, this forum is only for the free version available on WordPress.org. I believe
   you’re using the Pro version. Feel free to email us about any questions you have
   through our official website.
