$5100 bid for $51

tubbsy0Member

I recently made a bid starting from the 1.00 I found in the window, assuming that the .00 indicated no cents.I progressively raised my bid to 51 dollars, leaving the .00 alone.Imagine my horror when I found , after the auction, that a maximum bid of $5100 had been entered.Perhaps it was my fault , but if it was it was very easy to do!Luckily the auction finished at $48 so we got away with it this time.
If bids of over ,say $50 were only in whole numbers this danger would be avoided .Alternatively the window could separate cents and dollars (or pounds and newpence ).
Has anybody else had this experience ?
