Randlemanboater... Those are automatic bids.. if you click on the "show bids" part of the ad it shows you who is bidding and how much. Then if you click on the top right corner of that box on the "show automatic bids" you'll see bids that were hidden because they were too low. As an example...if someone makes a bid.. lets say his top bid is $950.... but the bid itself is only 400. Then another person makes a bid for 500. That bid won't show because the first person's top bid is for 950, so he automatically outbid the 500 bid. On the first page it will look like he just increased his bid to 505 or something like that because the lower bid of 500 won't show in the bid column. It's kinda how they do it on eBay because it doesn't show and it gives people the wrong idea, but it's legit and not someone bidding the price up.
