No one else bids on it (ie I remain the highest bidder) and AS places another bid for me at the last moment,but it will be the next increment up

Maybe I'm confused tonight, but I don't see why a subsequent bid (with no other bidders intervening) would automatically jump up a bid increment. I believe it would generally remain the same. (An exception would occur if the previous winning bid was short of a full increment, in which case eBay would use enough of the second bid to top it off.)

Am I mistaken? I will appreciate if someone can clarify my understanding. Thanks.
