I won an auction of an item I wanted but it went over my Max Bid. Does adding increments increase your Max Bid?

Hello L A,
If you used the Second Shot feature, yes, that tells Auction Sniper to increase your Max Bid in certain circumstances.
If you place a snipe that has the Second Shot feature enabled, our system will first submit your specified maximum bid at the lead time you selected. Then, if an existing proxy bid immediately exceeds your original maximum bid, our system will submit one more enhanced bid that is the specified number of bid increments greater than your initial maximum bid.
As it states in the Help window for Second Shot on the website:
"Important note: Second Shot is optional and free to use, but you may pay more for an item than your specified snipe amount if Second Shot places a second bid and wins that item."

Thankyou Craig, I understand the system better now.
Peace
L A
