maybe $10 is so high they rejected it? similar to adding a zero on a stock purchase at etrade - they'll call you and tell you you overbid...

- momokatte 16y agoThis sounds like a good theory. $10/hour is over 8x the cost of a c1.xlarge Windows on-demand instance. c1.xlarge on US-East charts: linux - http://cloudexchange.org/charts/us-east-1.linux.c1.xlarge.html http://cloudexchange.org/charts/us-east-1.linux.c1.xlarge.ht... windows - http://cloudexchange.org/charts/us-east-1.windows.c1.xlarge.html http://cloudexchange.org/charts/us-east-1.windows.c1.xlarge.... Try offering $1.30 if you need linux or $0.55 if you need Windows.
- mattlong 16y agointeresting indeed. I hadn't considered this. If this is the case, it's unfortunate they don't reject bids saying they're too high. I just submitted several more otherwise identical bids at different prices to see what happens...
- mattlong 16y agoFYI, the price doesn't seem to matter. A bid for $.50 isn't being fulfilled either. I still don't understand why a bid higher than the going rate isn't being fulfilled. :-/
