No, the bid came after mine. The situation was that I was high bidder with $50 or so and my maximum bid was $72.00. A sniper bid $72.02 at the last minute and beat my maximum bid by $.02. Really. I am assuming that the $72.02 was a lucky guess, these are pretty much one of a kind collectibles and while you might be able to see patterns, in most cases I think it would be difficult.

See my post with the e-bay explanation for this. I was not sniping or trying to snipe at the time, but I was watching and it was a snipe long after my bid. It was quite a shock to see it go from $50 to 72.02 at the last minute. the beauty of sniping!
