When you put in a high maximum bid for an item on Ebay and it just somehow happens to end exactly on your maximum bid? For example, I just bid $100.50 on a CD on Ebay to hopefully make sure I won it because I knew I wouldn't be sitting at the computer when the auction ended. Well, the auction just happened to end on $100.50. It makes me wonder if the seller has another account and is trying to get the maximum amount out of it. Oh well, I guess I didn't have to put in a maximum bid that high.
Does Anyone Else Get Suspicious?...

Proxy Bidding
The feature of an auction-style listing in which eBay automatically bids on the buyer's behalf, up to the maximum amount they set. Enter the maximum amount you're willing to spend on an item, and eBay will continue to bid incrementally for you until either you're the high bidder or your maximum is reached. This means you don't have to keep coming back to bid every time someone else places a bid.
