so your saying the bid would only increase .50 cents if he had outbid me with any amount?

then why is the bid still $7.00 after he placed 6 bids today all increasing by .50 cents but only up to the amount of $7.00

you bid $7.00 bucks first so you still the high bidder , if we was at a real action and tou bid $7.00 first how can I be like I got $7.00 on it too? they would say I got $7.00 can I get 7.25 no going going gone lol

Yes, they do. I'm always sceptical which is why I usually just match the highest bid and then wait until the auction is just about to end to put in my maximum bid. There have been too many times where I put in my max bid and the bidding just somehow goes all the way up to my max bid but does not surpass it.

a great ebay tactic is to watch the item and the before it ends throw your bid in with 30 seconds or less ...or there is an app called bid sniper that handles work for you

some people have a network amongst each other to help drive up prices in the auction especially if they have no reserve and it sells to cheap they have there folks drive up the price so they get outbid or prevent you from getting the jug.

Don't bid on shit you wanna buy. Just watch it and set an alarm or mark your calendar or whatever to remind you about 15 min before the auction is gonna end. Then about 5 min before it ends place your bid and put in the max amount you will pay for that item. You and a few other people will be doing this at the same time, and basically whoever puts in the highest number before the clock runs out gets the prize. Dont be that guy who comes through and gets in a bidding war with some other dude a week before the auction is over. All that does is drives up the price for everyone. If everyone just chills out and plays it cool until the last minute, then the ebayer who wins will get the best possible deal.
