Look at the dates again. I included them in the copy of the bids. I was high bidder for three or four days! I was outbid with 15 seconds left. There were three bids placed. His, Mine, His.

Here's my guess, but that's why I was asking people who know more, it's just a guess...

He bids on Oct 5th 4.99, I bid on Oct 8th $15 he bids on Oct 12th $15.01 and wins

He should have to outbid me by 50 cents not one cent? But say that when it neared the end he bid $14.01 and my Proxy bids 14.51, then he needs to bid $15.01 to outbid me by one cent.

Is that possible?

No complaints, I buy and sell and trade with the same guy. Just wondering how a 1 cent beat happened.

Also the bid 50c and find the top is flawed if I understood it right, because I tried it twice and ended up high bidder. Not only that, I couldn't bid less than 50c to move up under the top proxy bid.

Here's the auction, I was outbid with 15 seconds left, by one red cent.
