I bid on an item last night, I went in with my max bid with only a few seconds to go. The item already had one bid at the starting price, I got the confirmation I was the highest bidder at £107 (starting price £95). The auction then ended and confirmed I won the auction at my highest bid £127.70.
The confirmation email confirmed there were 3 bidders, so did the other bidder happen to go in with a max bid of £127.69 ? I’m just interested in how it works ?
Have you looked at the bidding history? You can often work it out from that. I’m not sure how ebay works out the minimum bid increases but it may be that someone (or their software) tried to snipe you right at the end with a few pence on the current high bid.
