Sixbid does not increment your bid on your behalf. When you submit your bid, they send your bidder information to the auction house with your bid amount, and then you are notified when the auction house has accepted your bid. From that moment on, the auction house (and their software) manage your bid and you should really deal with them directly (for example if you want to adjust your bid after it is submitted). Payment is then made directly to the auction house, and not through sixbid.</p><p><br /></p><p><b><i>Generally speaking, most auction houses will treat your bid as a maximum bid and will proxy bid on your behalf.</i></b> I have bought from Naumann through sixbid before and by my recollection they do proxy bid. I have only encountered <i>one</i> auction house that took the bids from sixbid and processed them as fixed bids, so it does happen. I strongly suggest going to the website for each auction house and reading their bidding and payment rules directly so there are no surprises.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
