Is SnapRat still alive? I went to their site, and the time is wrong, auctions are the same as a few months back, and are closed as well. No one thee is answering their support e-mail. The number of auctions that are listed to be in the categories is completely false. I'll be surprised if you can find 50 auctions still alive.

It could be that they're having server problems and restored off of an old backup... seems to me that SnapRat was alive-and-well when I last checked them (about a week ago).

I think a more likely explanation might be it is not dead but the operators are not taking care of business. I think Snap Rat runs the same Mewsoft auction package that I do and since the latest version is having a small problem with the auto relist or archiving of auctions on the site it looks like they may have gone back to the manual closing of auctions. I manually relist several times a day but it looks like they let theirs go for days and sometimes weeks before they do their maintenance. The fact that smaller sites like ours are not real active also probably has something to do with their maintenance schedual. I do think that their maintenance should be done daily though or they will be a dead auction site.

Well after going back and taking another look I think I would have to change my mind and say Snap Rat is dead in the water. I found some auctions that closed in mid August that the operators have not processed. I left mail for the operator and so far have had no resonse. I have emailed several users and they all say the same thing, Snap Rat is not being maintained and as soon as their current auctions close they are moving on. To bad because at one time I thought they were doing well.
