<p>[QUOTE=&quot;rodeoclown, post: 1341094, member: 34005&quot;]Not from what I&#039;ve seen.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ve put in max bids, when someone bids higher than the current price (not my max bid), it removes my previous high bid (current price) and puts up the next highest one if it hasn&#039;t surpassed my max bid.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Say for instance:</p><p><br /></p><p>An item is a $1.00 and I put in my max bid of $30.

If they made another bid to try and outbid me, not knowing my max bid is $30 and say made their next bid of $15.00, it would show their $5.00 bid, then their $15.00 bid and then mine which I assume is now at $16.00.</p><p><br /></p><p>The bidding history only records actual bid amounts entered. Since I only put in one bid at $30.00, it&#039;s not going to display because I theoretically did not make those incremental bid amounts to still be top bidder.</p><p><br /></p><p>Hopefully that makes sense. What we&#039;re seeing in the auction is this exact behavior, the only fishy part is, the many many consecutive bids but then the member to almost immediately retract the last bid that doesn&#039;t make them top bidder any longer. Fishy, but unless this member is doing it to all of this seller&#039;s auctions, I hate defending eBay myself, it&#039;s not enough to warrant shill bids, especially if it&#039;s just this one time without eBay really investigating thoroughly more than likely by digging into logs, tracking IP Addresses, trying to link the two accounts back to the same party, if they&#039;re affiliated, etc.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
