    Also, what YankeeFan pointed out seems a bit odd. I do not know how their system works but auctions tend to be back and forth when it comes to bidding.
    Say I make the first bid on the auction and it is $10, but I also say my max is $100, if you come in and bid $50 the auction will automatically change my bid to $50 to tie yours and mine gets the tiebreaker because it was placed first, so the auction will re-list my name at $50. That is why bidders names are placed back to back. This type of auction software is relatively common online.

    Edit: No I lied, that is normally what happens, but in this case it appears that if I bid $10 and say my max is $100, and you come in and bid $150. The auction site will list my $10, then my $100, since it technically was a bid of mine, then a $150. So i would be listed back to back times but that $100 would never have been winning the auction.

      so IS the wording different that originally presented? i thought it before had "game" in it. not game worn, but a game jersey. now the 'game' has been removed - i think

      no. if you bid first and bid 100, it will have you at 10. then when the next guy comes in at 50, you now have the high bid at 60 (since the bid increase is set at $10).

      and edit is no. the list would read
      10 - you
      100 - you
      110 - other guy

                look at the last 3 bids:
                feder: 3010
                feder: 3100
                smac: 3110

                Exactly the same, just with an obscene 4th digit placed before the smaller numbers.

                              Errr, playing games with yourself while thinking about Megan? Shouldn't you keep that info to yourself?
