<p>[QUOTE=&quot;zach67005, post: 1239379, member: 31132&quot;]I prebid about 60-80 items the other day &amp; now am watching the live auction. I&#039;ve won about half of my bids, but here&#039;s the kicker...I remember seeing that I&#039;d been outbid on an item right after the live auction started(an item towards the end). How the bidder alerts work is that I get e-mails to inform me if I&#039;ve been outbid up to 1 hour before the auction starts, but no alerts after that(so you got to watch the live auction, but you can still pre-bid) I was just making a quick tally of my lots just now &amp; noticed that I was back in the lead on the lot I was outbid on(Merc with FSB), I thought it was awesome until I noticed that everyone of my lots were won at my max bid. I&#039;m a good estimater of value, but not that good. I believe that they have someone going in &amp; bidding an item up until it hits my max, &amp; if they catch it they either retract the bid or sometimes keep it &amp; relist it later. I think proxibid actually manages the prebids, but for some reason I&#039;m feeling like I&#039;m getting scammed. What to do? Call the auction house &amp; ask directly, or call proxibid? or just inform visa of what I suspect to be a criminal act? or just eat it, because I had planned on spending up to that amount anyway?</p><p>Thanks.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
