Teletrade rules are BS!

[Leothelion]

1. To ensure that a maximum bidder wins a lot at the lowest possible price, all max bids are strictly confidential. The maximum bidding system doesn't divulge other bidders' max bids. See #4.

 

2. Our computer analyzes your bid one increment at a time and bids for you only when necessary. See #3.

 

3. At periodic intervals in an auction our computer determines if there is a maximum bid higher than the current bid. If there is, it will raise the bid on behalf of the maximum bidder to one bid increment above the current bid. See #2.

 

4. During the auction you may check to see if you are still the high bidder on any lots by entering your ID number and then the "#" button after being prompted for a lot number. See #1.

 

Yeah, right! A bidder is going to keep bidding until he sees that "your bid" flashing!
