livethelake said:^I'll try to explain the bidding - when you see multiple bids by one seller like you listed, it's because the high bidder placed a bid that's above the next increment. The multiple bids by one person are because ebay is automatically registering the earlier bid up to the maximum the high bidder has placed. For example - You are the current high bidder with a bid of $90.00. But when you placed your bid, you set your maximum bid at $200. I place a bid of $100. Ebay will recognize my earlier bid and you will get a message that you have been outbid. So I bid again, this time for $150. Your previous bid is still higher so I bid again get the message that I have been outbid. So I bid again at $175, your earlier bid is still higher. I bid again at $200. Because your bid was placed first, you are still the high bidder. My next bid will become the high bid because the most you bid initially was $200.
Hopefully this is makes sense.
