How do you have a fair shot at my location the increase bid button?
I was the highest bidder and item I desperately wanted. With 20 seconds left to go I was becoming out bid and I went to increase my bid. However the bid on item button was no longer there there was only a Buy It Now or a contact seller item. I panicked I frantically looked for the button and finally with one second left to go saw that I had a message at the top of the screen that said you have been out bid would you like to increase your bid? Of course I wanted to increase my bid I have desperately been searching for the item for 4 years! I hit that button as quickly as I could in the auction ended. How are people supposed to have a fair chance if eBay does not let them know that they are going to move and hide the button that allows you to increase bids?
