Bids are .60 per bid...yes the more you get into it, you can get bids for .20 per bid or so... Each bid a bidder places takes the auction up .01! So let's say you are bidding on a 25.00 item... The bid is at $10.25...that means 1025 bids have been placed at let's just average .40 per bid...that is over $400 they have brought in for that $25.00 item...yes people can opt to buy that it'sm and get bids back...but really? Unless you are lucky Nd time a bid right...there is nooo winning.
