The following table has been reorganized and sorted into date order. First bid placed is line #1. That should make it easier to follow the auction. Two additional columns have been calculated and added. They are the current bid and high bidder, as displayed on eBay after each bid is placed. v2.1.08 * = Winning bid. (may be less than actual maximum entered.)

You lost in line 12, the same way you did in line 7 and 8. Even though your bid was higher than the 'current bid' it was not higher than someone else's max.
