    That's how it works.  You specify a maximum bid and the system 
automatically
    bids on your behalf.   If the first guy bid $20 your bid of $25 would have
    put the high bid up top $20.50 .  If somebody else came along and bid $30
    the high bid would go to $25.50 , etc etc.

   When I logged on, the maximum bid was 4.99 with a .50 increment. So, I bid 
   $5.24 and the system automatically outbid me.So, i tried $5.74 and the 
same 
   thing happened. I bid $6.24 and the same thing happened. Finally, I bid 
$25 
   and got the high bid. Where did I go wrong? Or did I go wrong?
 
   How many times would that inching up kept going on? I'm not bitching, just 
trying         to  figure out the proxy bidding strategy and what it means.
