That's the point. When the second bidder placed their bid for $5.60, the

Sniping is also affected by this. I should have won this auction at
$6.10, but had to pay $6.60 (8% penalty for being selected for this
"test"). The second highest bidder, o***t(3272), got to bid in $.25
increments below $5 ($4.39 -> $4.64), while my...
It is also unfair that the others get to have the $0.50 increment when I

If I could increase my bid by $0.50, I might bid again, but with $1

$0.25 increment, and then $1 increment upto $25. If my max bid would
have been $5, previously I was able to bid on an item all the way until
bid reached $4.75. But now, I skip b...
