How??? Bidding increment question.

switchMember

Hi All, new to AS and this forum!
I am currently hoping that in about 10 minutes time AS will secure me a purchase on e-bay. However I have a question regarding the increment bidding (nothing to do with AS).
The increments are stated at £5, so in all theory it should go £290, £295 e.t.c. however the current highest bidder has put in a bid of £291...how?? I've always taken the increments at face value, so is it simply that you can stick in whatever value you like as long as it's the highest bid and the increments are simply there as a guide? Have I really been that dumb?

Thanks in advance!

Someone placed a max bid of £286. So, with a £5 increment, the current price becomes £291.
