Now between the time that you saw that $1200 bid, and the additional time that it takes for your bid to reach them at the auction, the live&nbsp; bid may have increased to $6000. So when your bid hits, that $1300 bid of yours turns into $6500.</p><p><br /></p><p>Yeah - in just those few seconds of delay that&#039;s what can happen.
