Had five items in a group. The group was set to win one. I won two and had to pay for both. Both Auctions concluded at the same time.. is that why ?

Correct. When you have a limit for groups, auctions can not be finishing at the same time. The system need some time for auction to be finished and decide who is the winner.
Please check this FAQ section for more information:

I just ran into the same problem. Live and learn I guess. It would be nice if there was a warning or myibay was smart enough not to bid on both.

Unfortunately myibay can not guess how many items you need to win.
I have many bidders who use groups to win more than one item.
If you wish to have a default limit (let's say "1 item"), then you can change it in your Profile.

Ah, I didn't realize there was a setting for that. I just assumed that groups were meant to only win one. User error I guess.
To be fair, I recognized the potential for a problem so I set the "My time" lead times to different times in a hope that would help myibay out. Obviously I didn't understand exactly what I was doing.
myibay is a great service. Thanks!
