Hi Pattie & Adam....I lost an auction today..and after looking

I think this is what happened.......About 1/2 hr before the close of the auction,someone bid 13.00...I had put in a snipe earlier for 13.49....the bid increment was .50 and because the other bidder had went .01 over the previous increment bid of ex: 10.49..Didn't make a bid using exactly the bid increment amount,then my sniper bid was NO GOOD !!The bid increment was still in effect at the time AS would have placed my bid....but because the latest(and the winning bid) was 13.00 and mine was 13.49,AS couldn't bid for me...Lesson learned

don't always bid by exactly the bid increment amt.....Carol.....
