What's the usual kick-up in price increments? This item is quite inexpensive, so the lowest vid I can make is 50 cents higher. Does that leap up if the item is expensive?
You can put in any amount for example last week I was bidding on a camera exactly the same as my best one.
It was at 16.10 and that was going up in 0.50 at 30 seconds I typed in the maximum I was willing to pay which was 27.50 I got it for 16.60.
When the next person bids if they are lower than your bid it will then go to their highest figure for example if it is 5.50 at the moment you type in 8.50 but someone else types in 6.25 then I think it would show either 6.25 or 6.75 as the current bid with you as the highest bidder.
