[QUOTE="tenbobbit, post: 8233381, member: 95247"]I will try and explain it my way to see if it makes sense to you. By increasing your max pre bid, you removed your previous max bid from the system & replaced it with a new one. That is why it does not show up. The other part has been explained above and is a way of bidding ( live ) that i have used myself. It was bidder 4 that altered the pattern by testing the water at 605, hoping your max was 600. This told him / her that you have gone to at least 650. They then decided to try 755 hoping your max was 750 at the most. ( going up 1 bid level would have wasted the opportunity to bid 755 ) Bingo. They found your max and avoided a full increment ;) Their max may well have been 750 like you, but, who wants to lose a coin at that price for a cheeky fiver :banghead: Hope that made some sense :confused:[/QUOTE]
